Overfishing Infographic

Overfishing is when fish are caught faster than the natural population can reproduce. This creates numerous problems that have detrimental consequences. Several fish species are endangered due to unregulated and poor fishing practices. Not only does this create a problem for the oceans biodiversity, but also for the millions of people who rely on fish for their livelihood. The ocean gives millions of people jobs, but those jobs are being threatened by overfishing.
