10% of the ocean’s fish are left

My eCornell course is informing me on the damage we are doing to the planet. Our enormous nets scrape the bottom of the ocean, toss 70% of the (dead) bycatch away and keep an ever-reducing number of fish, about 10% of what we had 50 years ago. The answers? Eat less meat, end meat/chicken/dairy/fishing subsidies.
