The bar graph and the table indicate comparisons of millions of fishers in 5 regions in the world between 1970, 1980 and 2000 and the world’s top ten exporters of fish in 2000.

As is illustrated by the bar graph, millions of fishers reveal the most significant amount in Asia while the lowest amount of fishers is showed in Europe throughout three periods of time. The largest amount represents 24 millions of fishers in Asia in 2000 and the least one represents only 0.3 millions of fishers in Europe in 1970. The level of Asian fishers dramatically rises up whereas the others seem stay the same. While the number of fishers was only 9 millions in 1970 this figure had more than doubled in 2000. When others illustrated fluctuations of the total fishers, South America remained unchanged its stability of 1.2 millions of fishers during three years.

    Over fishing has led to an almost complete wipe out of the mature cod population in the area of Northern Europe. With lack of regulations, the world could witness an entire species of fish destroyed due to rational behavior of man to want more. This is a classic example of a “commons” which Garrett Hardin discusses in his essay “The Tragedy of the Commons” (Hardin, 1968). The North Atlantic Cod is a natural resource that, although regulated minutely, is being overfished and exploited. Even though the fishing industry is an important industry that feeds many third world countries and provides income to most of those countries also, allowing the exploitation is unacceptable. Today’s society is not effectively reducing or efficiently stopping the damage that is being done to the populations and environment. In order to solve the problem of over fishing cod in the Northern Atlantic we must apply a combination of technical and ethical solutions. I would have the United Nations pass specific laws regulating major fish populations which could be an extension of the Third Committee: Social, Cultural, and Humanitarian or (SOCHUM) of the United Nations. I would also have specific incentives put up by SOCHUM to promote research into developing more widespread aquacultures and better fishing technology that better targets older species of fish.…

    As a Canadian Government representative, in the west coast, offers diverse sorts of fish however faces numerous encounters. Variety of fish consist of salmon, which have many forms as chum, spring, pink, sockeye, and coho. Salmon significantly contributes to the Canadian economy while it upturns trades and creates abundance amounts of employments. In addition, over some time there has been a deterioration of the West Coast fisheries. (Clarke, Wallace & Earle, 2006) Some challenges that the West Coast fisheries face are changes in the environment with leads to global warming, overfishing, and lack of a salmon fishing treaty. Both Canadians as well as Americans put into practise overfishing at mistaken measures due to improvement in machinery and technology. Not only is the west coast subject to high levels of fishing pressure. Fishing practices, such as trawling for prawns, are permitted, resulting in untargeted fish capture by catch, and damage to the seafloor and its resident plants and animals. Global warming is also having a corrupt influence on the salmon offspring’s. Salmons favour temperatures below 7°C, as the seawater is begging to get warmer fishes are slowly going northward. Thus, this impacts Canada’s salmon productions and entirely the West Coast fisheries. For some time there has been a quarrel between Canada and the United States of who gets what, and in how much. If these two countries do not come to a settlement, in which issues are not properly set, valuable resources will be destroyed for upcoming generations.…
