I know its not MMGW, but this seems an appropriate forum.
What would you say to a campaign to have people stop eating fish?
Our oceans are clearly fairing pretty badly. Pretty soon there isn't going to be any fish left. And when the ocean's food chain collapses we ourselves are going to be in for one heck of a big problem.
It seems hard to stop people over fishing. But what if we had a campaign to stop people eating fish. make it really socially unacceptable. So there would be no point in fishing.
There seems to be lots of referrences on the web to the sorry state of the oceans and fish stocks, and obviously some people realise the solution is to stop eating fish. But there never seems to have been any big awareness campaign, like MMGW for example. Why not?
It feels like it would be a really hard thing to impress on people. But if nothing is done....
I mean, do we need to eat fish? Can't we live on meat and veg? Can't we get by with just farmed fish? Shouldn't we be leaving what is left in the oceans to the fish food chain?
It seems to me there is no point having fish quotas in the north sea for example, if all people do is just eat fish imported from somewhere else - causing even more problems there. The only solution I can see is to get people to just stop eating fish.
