WE ARE MUCH FASTER AT WIPING OUT FISH THAN ANYTHING ELSE

💬 Quote of the Day

“We are killing about 100 million sharks a year”
Forrest Galante

🤔 Reflection Question

Is it possible to stop fishing globally for 8 years?
Hit reply — I’d love to hear your take.

While a global 8-year fishing halt is technically possible through international treaties like the UN High Seas Treaty, it is practically unachievable due to the catastrophic socio-economic consequences. Over 3 billion people depend on seafood as a primary protein source, and a total ban would trigger mass starvation and the collapse of a $401 billion industry, disproportionately affecting developing coastal nations. While the environmental payoff would be immense—modeled after the fish explosion seen after the 6-year pause during World War II—the lack of global enforcement power over dark fleets and the immediate need for food security make a full moratorium less viable than targeted solutions like Marine Protected Areas or the 30x30 initiative.
