    Overfishing occurs when humans catch fish faster than fish populations can replenish, reducing fish numbers in oceans and harming marine environments and human food sources. Actions to reduce overfishing include limiting catch amounts, designating no-fishing zones, restricting small nets that catch juvenile fish, increased monitoring, and avoiding endangered species. Consequences of overfishing disrupt ocean biodiversity, threaten coastal livelihoods, and could drive marine species extinct as some populations have already collapsed.

    Overfishing

    What is over fishing?


    Over fishing is a situation where humans catch too much fish from the oceans in such large
    amounts and faster than they can reproduce. In other words, it is when we take out more
    fish than the fish can naturally replace. This leads to a reduce of fish of our oceans, causing
    a huge problem to marine environment and also humans because many people depend on
    fish in a source of vitamin, food, and also medicine.

    Actions the can be taken to stop overfishing

    Fisheries are encourage to stick to a limit number of fish that can be caught at a time.
    There are a set of number of days of days that fishing is allow. This way there is some fallow
    days for fish to breed and reproduce.
    No fishing zones have been marked in many areas to allow fishes to recover.
    Fishing gear that catch tiny or baby fishes are discourage to help the little fish grow. Only large
    net-mesh are allowed in some areas.
    These days, there are many monitoring equipment and installations set up to regulate the
    activities and movement of fishing.
    Also dont try to caught fish the is endeangered of becoming extinct.
    Dont caught more than 10 fish of the same specie bacause there is more people the is trying
    to get fish.

    Overfishing has serious consequences, as result not only affect the balance of life in the
    oceans, but also the social economic of the costal communities who depend on fish for their
    way of life, also their biodiversity. If this continues all the marine species will become
    endangered of being extinct. Overfishing also alter their stability, some marine species have
    already become extinct. Also some sea food restaurants will close its door because they

    will not have any marine food to sell and this will cause the loose of the money they
