Overfishing is a dangerous global issue that is often overlooked people who do not directly rely on marine wildlife for protein. However, as billions of people live near coastal areas and rely heavily on marine wildlife to sustain their lifestyles, overfishing can produce an additional burden on populations that live inland. Therefore, it is up to us, as individuals, to help prevent overfishing. By staying informed, understanding what you eat, and helping to spread the word, we can inform others to act responsibly.
