1. Overfishing dramatically reduces the population of the fishes that are being targeted by fishing companies. For example‚ the Chinese have overfished their fish populations in the East China Sea‚ so now they are fishing illegally on Philippine‚ and Argentine waters.

When too many fish are caught‚ they cannot sustain their population‚ which leads to there being no more fish to be caught. Overfishing is caused because of fishing fleets worldwide
