Johann Hari: Could we be the generation that runs out of fish? (https://www.independent.co.uk/opinion/commentators/johann-hari/johann-hari-could-we-be-the-generation-that-runs-out-of-fish-1697247.html)

Excerpts:

https://www.independent.co.uk/multimedia/archive/00180/pg-10-fish-getty_180955t.jpg"The process of trawlering is an oceanic weapon of mass destruction"

"In my parents' lifetime, we have killed 90 per cent of the world's fish. In my lifetime, we will finish off the rest – unless we change our ways, fast. We are on course to be the people who wiped fish from the earth."
