- Death of oceans
- Fishing factory in Massachusetts that fishes for table fish e.g. cod.
- Employs loads of people-reason for overfishing and hard to campaign against it.
- 90000 kilos of fish are exported every day from one plant.
- Companies are having to source stock from further away than ever.
- 85% is imported from other parts of the US or other countries entirely.
- Countries such as Indonesia, China, Vietnam and Russia
- Technology has caused- large factory ships, nexts as long as 60km and sonar.
- Increased transport and speed and styrofoam cooling boxes-fish available anywhere
- In 50 years 90% of top predators e.g. tuna, shark and swordfish have been fished.
- Predators reproduce more slowly so are more vulnerable under intense fishing.
- Removing a species in a particular trophic level can affect the rest of the species in that web.
- Could lead to an increase in smaller organisms such as bacteria that could negatively affect ocean life.
