What’s the secret recipe for restoring fish stocks?
Manage episode 423306126 series 3360000
Will there ever be more fish in the sea? Almost 90% of all marine fish stocks globally are now fully exploited or overfished, according to a study from the World Bank. In the Mediterranean region alone, more than 40% of marine mammals and a third of the total fish population have been lost in just half a century.
However, there does appear to be some hope for the future of the fishing industry, as new rules come into force.
To learn more about the new European regulations concerning overfishing, listen to the full episode of Ocean Calls in the player above.
In this episode of Ocean Calls, we're diving deep into this controversial issue and seeking solutions to help fish stocks recover.
We hear from Daniel Voces, managing director of Europêche, which represents the fishery industry in the EU, and Louis Lambrechts, European Ocean Policy officer at WWF.
At the end of the episode, you’ll also hear from Sy Montgomery, an award-winning author and naturalist. You won’t want to miss her story about the time she met and bonded with Athena, a giant Pacific octopus.
