Please, stop eating fish. The world’s stocks of seafood will have collapsed by 2048 at present rates of destruction by fishing. This means the ocean will be empty by 2048 if people don’t stop eating fish. The fishing industry is the biggest killer of animals in the world, more than 1 trillion fish die each year. Please ask yourself if your fish consumption is worth the total extinction of all marine life. Please stop eating fish and alert everyone you know what will happen if we don’t. 

holy shit this is actually true

i dont even buy fish that much and golly i love fish but its not worth this

I love seeing posts like this circulating, getting big. I’m GLAD people are finally scared.

If you can’t cut fish out of your diet, there are also options for sustainable fish! Farmed fish like catfish and tilapia are very sustainable (especially catfish, because they eat an entirely vegetarian diet). They actually help oceans, because by choosing sustainable fish, you leave the at-risk fish in the water. The absolute worst fish to buy or eat are large predatory fish like tuna, swordfish, shark, and the like. 

If you want to know which fish are best for the environment to eat, check out seafoodwatch.org. They have a searchable database where you can check out which fishes are best and worst! And This Page on their website has sustainability guides for every state in the United States, so wherever you are in the country you can know how to help the ocean.
