The oceans store a huge amount of carbon, tiny marine plants called phytoplankton absorb carbon and fish eat them, then swim down to store the carbon deep in the ocean. Without fish, earth's carbon levels could be on the rise. Exacerbating climate change. Unfortunately, overfishing is already starting some of these changes.
Today, nearly a third of marine life is overfished. Fishing sustainably could help prevent terrible consequences like these ones. Besides all the physical effect imagine how empty the oceans would be without over 1 trillion tons of fish.
