Over Fishing- A Global Crisis

Bycatch refers to the the unintentional removal of non-targeted species during fishing. As the video mentions, bycatch is happening a lot. The video also provides some solutions to overfishing including consumers choosing not to eat fish that are over fished.

Some restaurants have already started doing this.
