Overfishing Is Killing Us

Where are the fish? This problem can’t be ignored or soon the sea creatures will disappear. We are losing many sea species. Almost 80% of fish are taken from the sea. The only reason people are overfishing is to sell more fish and get a lot of money.

Fish are a big part in our food system. Fish have the fatty acids and Omega-3 oils that our body’s need to live a long healthy life. We should preserve the fish in the sea. If we kill them all, we may ruin the ecosystem in the future. Fishermen should think before they overfish. They should consider the ecosystem. Will overfishing become a bigger problem in the future? Can fish species go extinct from this? Is this worth killing thousands of fish?

These four simple questions can save the ecosystem easily. People shouldn’t be greedy because soon the fish will be gone forever.

Overfishing may not seem like a huge problem now. However, if we continue down this path, it is just going to get worse. There should be a limit for what fishermen can take from the ocean. They can still make money and provide food for their families without killing all the sea creatures.
Overfishing is a major problem in our community and it won’t get better without changes. We can end this problem very easily, so let’s just end it.
