What are the main problems concerning our seas? Overfishing and plastic garbage are two main concerns. What are other issues?
Plans and ideas how we could do better.
I also hink that overfishing is a big problem, maybe the biggest on earth. It makes me angry and sad too when I read that we destroy the world. A lot of people doesn't want to see the problem, but it exists. Overfishing should be banned. But there is one problem. All the fishers could not work as fishers. That is not good. We should find a solution that the fishers can work and the overfishing will be stopped.

FACT #3

Some small islands and developing countries risk losing up to 70% of their fisheries income due to climate change. [6]
Also a good option to avoid overfishing. WWF has some good guides were they write exactly which fishes that can be bought and which one that are…
