a. Read the information. What does sustainable mean?


Fish is one of the world’s favorite foods. Around the world, the average
person eats 36 pounds (16 kg) of fish every year. But many kinds of fish
around the world are disappearing because people catch too many of
them. Scientists say that 90 percent of the biggest fish are gone now. If we
catch too many big fish now, there won’t be any baby fish in the future.
Our way of finishing now is not sustainable- it can’t continue for a long
time without hurting the environment.
