The Destruction of our Seas: How Overfishing is Destroying our Oceans

[@Strik9]

If everyone on Earth saw this it wouldn't matter if nothing is done. This overharvesting of our oceans has been a big problem for 40+ yrs. Education without action is futile. 🌎👀

[@charlyandrew1]

Yes a huge problem. I would love to see a documentary that updates this one to the 2020s at least.

[@CricketLover52008]

We humans are not only destroying the nature but our own future 😢

[@Seabrook57]

AWESOME, Rupert!! Thank you.

[@anna_m59]

I was in SA currently. I witnessed the poor condition of the ocean. I was swimming with plastic bottle bags cups clothes. It should be a snorkeling but we didn’t see more than 1-2 fish.

[@richarddelconnor]

I lived in Newfoundland during the early 70s and they were complaining about huge Japanese ships and of course huge trawlers from other countries already diminishing the cod population.

[@SAMURAISURFIN]

I did not know😰 we must apologize for past mistakes🙇‍♂

[@SalyLuz-hc6he]

@@SAMURAISURFIN🙏🏽How can the cod now be replaced? We must have some type of management system for sea life, or it will all disappear.

[@SAMURAISURFIN]

@@SalyLuz-hc6he The population of cod on Canada's east coast has been catastrophically reduced, but now it seems that they are gradually increasing. This video was made in 2009, when there was no cod farming. Nowadays, cod is also farmed, but the population of all fish, not just cod, is decreasing year by year.🥲

[@crookedfingersgirl7356]

Japs don't eat cod much. The natives of Canada spoke about their rights to fish freely were taken and given to Canadian fishermen... That was the 80/90s. Our families were friends. It was the end of their livelihoods.

great doc. I wonder what the same type documentary would look like now ?

[@mickgatz214]

Sad, very sad.... 😥

[@none-jc3xr]

Profitability is high for fishing companies but it feeds the world population. Where do you think the fish went? It's in the stomach of the world population. True, marine protected areas will be key to future survival.

[@StarlitSky1914]

Sadly I think there’s more plastic than fish in the ocean! ☹️

[@rebelcybran5850]

We're so self-important. Everybody's going to save something now. “Save the trees, save the bees, save the whales, save those snails.” And the greatest arrogance of all: save the planet. Save the planet, we don't even know how to take care of ourselves yet.

[@robertfutch733]

It is very important to save our oceans.

[@fkkkkkenig]

Taking care of ourselves means taking care of the ocean.

[@iriemon_onelove]

Very sad.

[@trevorwills3356]

Alaska Pollack is equal to cod in flavour and much cheaper so those who like eating fish should opt for Alska Pillock.

[@Mongieboy]

Until that is overfished I guess.

[@peterdonaghey7554]

doesn't solve the problem though.

We're all responsible. We must stop contaminating the sea, rivers, and lakes. How easily people damps trash ,chemicals the horrible overfishing all over the world. Ignorance is the common denominator.

Give a man a fish and he will eat for the day. Give a man a fishing pole and he will wipe out a species.

Give a man a fish you feed him for a day, and teach a man how to catch fish you feed him for a lifetime.

[@SalyLuz-hc6he]

It’s not one man with a fishing pole or one family with a small fishing boat that is wiping out species! It’s allowing gigantic and international factory ships to trawl and destroy, without measure. It’s the massive scale, fishing as much as every commercial fishing ship possibly could catch, without any restraint that killed them off.

[@Orang315]

This video makes me hungry for tuna 🍣 even more ! 😋🐟🐟🐟🩷🍣🍣🍣🔫

[@CDXLIV444]

Maybe we should direct some of our military spending into protecting the environment and supporting the displaced fisherman who's jobs depend on it. Many of our problems could be solved by just working together as a species. Just 25% of the US military budget each year would solve world hunger in 5 years.

Greed and the earth is overpopulated, birth control needs to be enforced in these countries!!

[@tobewithyouhoo]

This beautiful document does not address demographics and world human overpopulation. When this film was made, in 2007 the world population was roughly 6.5 billion, now, 17 years later, we have added 1.5 billion and we are now over 8 billion , 8 billion eaters more. I think we are largely exaggerating. We can resolve this fish depletion problem and all others at no cost by reducing the human population. If every couple has just one child we can reduce the human population from 8 billion to 2 billion in just two generations. This is not about selective breeding but about fairness for all living creatures on the planet and therefore our own survival.

[@SalyLuz-hc6he]

Most countries are having extreme drop-offs in population, to an unsustainable degree. How about focussing on those with more than 1 billion already in their country? Because the most advanced countries are already having the least children.

They have to kill other fish to make fish pellets to feed fish in the pens.

In the vast majority of countries, population has taken a nosedive to unsustainable levels. If your country is one where a giant population is still growing rather than decreasing, perhaps you should focus on that issue within your own country.

Ты Бог мне даешь,а я не буду это есть.Потому что свинину мне нельзя употреблять в пищу,она не чистое животное,-а рыбы мало в морях и мне ее жаль.Человеку нужно только работать и не получать ни какой радости даже в еде и здоровье.А на самом деле вселенная,желает отдачи за ваше рождение,-только вашей энергией счастья,радости.И это единственное ваше предназначение.Живите счастливо и все.
