Overfishing aka Aquacalypse now!

Here is a link to a GREAT post about the state of world fisheries and the nonsense behind government subsidy revenues that are sustaining unreasonably high fleet numbers. For most readers, I highly recommend reading at least the first page, as it is informative enough, but I will encourage everyone to read the whole three page ordeal. Author of the post is Daniel Pauley, of whom a rather lengthy but interesting video can be seen in the “embedment” below. The subject is essentially the same. The best point he makes, in my opinion, is the vertical pressure that needs to be exerted upon government entities to achieve change (in sustainable fisheries), just like in smoking laws.
