The fishery resources are in decline, and a third of them collapsed.<br>Fishing today is dominated by a gigantic modern fishing fleet with enough fishing capacity to cover 4 Earth-like planets. It is far greater than the ocean's capacity to renew the number of fish we consume.<br>Almost 80% of the world's fishery resources are already fully exploited, overexploited, depleted, or in a state of collapse. Worldwide, 90% of stocks of large predatory fish, such as sharks, tuna, marlin, and swordfish, have already disappeared. Sufficient data exist in the Mediterranean and the Black Sea to assess the healthy state of 85 stocks, and 88% of these are overfished.<\/p><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-heading stk-block-heading stk-block-heading--v2 stk-block stk-a70c3f3\" id=\"fishing-down-the-food-web\" data-block-id=\"a70c3f3\"><h2 class=\"stk-block-heading__text stk-block-heading--use-theme-margins\">Fishing down the food web<\/h2><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-text stk-block-text stk-block stk-3452390\" data-block-id=\"3452390\"><p class=\"stk-block-text__text translation-block\">Besides causing a general decline in catches, the excessive effort that characterizes industrial fishing has led to increasingly large landings of undersized fish.
