   In 2024 a study [147] was released, dedicated to the impact of fishing and non fishing ships on the coastal waters of the ocean when 75% of the industrial activity occur. According to the study: "A third of fish stocks are operated beyond biologically sustainable levels and an estimated 30–50% of critical marine habitats have been lost owing ...

6. Climate change and fisheries - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Climate_change_and_fisheries

   Over-fishing exacerbates the effects of climate change by creating conditions that make a fishing population more sensitive to environmental changes. Studies show that the state of the ocean is causing fisheries to collapse, and in areas where fisheries have not yet collapsed, the amount of over-fishing that is done is having a significant ...

7. Sustainable fishery - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sustainable_fishery

   Sustainability can mean different things to different people. Some may view sustainable fishing to be catching very little in order for fish populations to return to their historical levels (represented by the upper left green area), while others consider sustainability to be the maximum amount of fish we can catch without depleting stocks any further (red dot).
