A Fisherman's Dream and Nightmare
WHAT IS
OVERFISHI
NG?
One of the most important causes of reductions in
marine wildlife populations is fishing. Catching fish
is not inherently bad for the ocean, except for when
vessels catch fish faster than stocks can replenish.

Weak govermance
In order to enhance fish output and market sales at the expense of
ecosystem health, illegal, unreported, and unregulated fishing methods
are used in violation of national laws due to weak management abilities.
Yes, we need more food because the human population is growing at this
very moment. However, rather than overfishing the ocean, we should
create an environment where fish can thieve first.

$3MAIN
CAUES$
Illegal fishing method
Fishing has become disruptive as a result of new technology and
innovation. The most harmful of these new fishing techniques is
trawling. Huge nets are cast by fishing trawlers into the ocean, which
captures many fish but also harms the coral reef. In a moment, we'll talk
about why it's bad for coral reefs to be damage.

$3MAIN
CAUES$
Too much fishing capacity
Industrial ships will catch fish two more times, causing a race between
fishing and fish reproduction. Since the ship would catch large or adult
fish, there would be fewer adult fish to reproduce, which would have an
impact on both humans and the food chain.

Rise of the Endangered Species

with more coral reefs becoming hit by overfishing's collateral damage.


The aquatic life would lose its ability to reproduce by losing its spawning
grounds, food, and habitat. Many economically significant species would
vanish, and the marine food webs would be disrupted. Both parties would
be on the losing end if this continued.

EFFECTS$
An Utter Imbalance of the
Marine Ecosystems
The largest ocean in the world. It also has the deepest known point on
Earth, the Challenger Deep. Overfishing has a devastating impact on
marine ecosystems, as has already been mentioned. The conditions may
be so poor that the fish may not be able to continue to survive.
Additionally, the food chain is impacted when a certain species of fish is
captured frequently and unrestrainedly. Due to a lack of food, many other
fish species that depend on that one particular species struggle and
eventually perish.

$3MAIN
EFFECTS$
The Threat to Local Food
Sources
There are some communities all around the world that depend mostly on
fish as a food source. These communities, which are frequently found in
developing nations, are seriously threatened by the growing overfishing.
Their populations are at danger if they can't catch their food.

ASK YOUR GOVERNMENT TO PREVENT
OVERFISHING AND REBUILD
OVERFISHED FISHERIES NOW.

Can you envision a future without fish if this action is not taken
into consideration? Imagine a world where the ocean is
completely empty and hollow. Fish stocks around the world will
continue to decline unless significant changes are made to the
way we capture and collect fish. For fish to thrive in our oceans,
we must embrace sustainable fishing methods.
