Fish is consumed as food all over the world; with other seafoods, it provides the world's prime source of high-quality protein: 1416% of the animal protein consumed world-wide; over one billion people rely on fish as their primary source of animal protein.

the only way to survive extreme Ice Age Or Extreme Global Warming Is Underground manmade or in Deep Natural Stable Caves.
And There Are Probably More Undiscovered Caves Than Documented Caves

Andrew Solow, director of the Marine Policy Center at the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution in Woods Hole, Massachusetts, "I think a good thing it does is draw attention to the scale of human activity in the ocean in general, but it really isn't science in the sense that I as a scientist view science," says Solow.

"They multiply together numbers that are people's opinions on the impact of a particular human activity on a particular ecosystem", he says. "It's a pseudo quantification."

right - we should, that's the aim of scaremongering :-)
Scared people will be easy to be ripped off (green taxes) and enslaved... It happens every time.

I aggre with you, But Unlike stuff like global warming I actually feel the effects of ocean pollution, It is Very very Very Real I go 30 meters down My Local Beach and I fill a Bag With trash!
Come on The Big Plastics Companies Have a Stake In Keeping This Down. The Govt Is on There Side Not The Oceans, I don't Think Eco Control Will Happen With This Issue Many Companies have a stake in Global warming It can make them Mega bucks and give them Mega control, With this Issue It is the opposite.

Over fishing is human damage

I'm not going to argue with you over the validity of this report. As far as I'm concerned, even loose studies like this containe grains of truth.
