This has got to make you think if man knows anything about the oceans.

Nice post Rockhopper, I'm not knocking you just the report

Previous research has shown that overfishing has lead to declines in oceanic cod, sharks, rays, tuna, marlins, swordfish, sea turtles, and several species of shellfish.


So overfishing leads to a decline in fish stocks..........

I suppose this news has to aired all the time as it would seem that nothing is happening all over the world regarding overfishing. I'm just waiting for the report telling us that x and y species are now extinct.

I suppose I'm just getting tired of seeing nothing of any worth getting done.
