Not suprising really. If you ever get a chance to visit a commercial fish market you should check it out, I went to the Hong Kong one and it blew my mind how much fish was there for sale, then someone told me it's open everyday. If you are pulling that much fish from the sea 7 days a week it has to run out eventually. Apparently the Tokyo and New York ones are even bigger so the scale of it globally on a daily basis is crazy. Even if we stopped commercial,fishing tomorrow I guess it would take a century to recover at least.

I first read about this and some rather scary predictions regarding of oceans fish population a few years ago.I read that China travels as far as Africa in order to catch a decent amount of fish.
The photos I have seen of fish markets around the world are kind of depressing when you consider that a good portion of the fish may not even be eaten.
