Oceanography published a study in 2001 in which he asserts that overfishing is more destructive than toxic pollution or degrading water quality (University of Phoenix‚ 2007). Dr. Daniel Pauly‚ Professor and Director of the University of British Columbia’s Fisheries Centre‚ describes it as follow on The Overfishing.org (2007) website: “The big fish‚ the bill fish‚ the groupers‚ the big things will be gone.

Jackson‚ it is reversible; there is still hope. Overfishing is not just fisheries taking fish from the sea; although that is the larger part of it. Fisheries also bycatch‚ which means they accidently catch other fish when fishing for certain species. Bycatching is causing depletion of other species and it is wasteful. Fisheries also harm habitats and breeding grounds by fishing and dragging equipment and nets. The fisheries create pollution as does the rest of the world‚ causing severe damage to

catch can be up to 80% bycatch‚ which negatively affects the populations of already endangered and overfished species. The removals of these FADS are necessary due to their low accuracy in a catch and destructive nature to the marine ecosystem. Fisheries are declining because of this said destruction‚ as other destructive fishing practices like bottom trawling‚ can destroy 1/5 of the sea floor fauna and flora at a time‚ and also because of large equipment that processes 1‚000s of tons a fish in a
