Where is Over Fishing taking place?


             "Over fishing is a global problem with many serious social, economic and environmental implications. Everyday, billions of people around the world rely on fish and seafood as a direct source of nutrition and a means of income." (Dfo-mpo.gc.ca). Now, more than ever before, our oceans are under pressure to meet the needs of growing populations in developing countries. The best example of the ecological and economical dangers of over fishing is found in Newfoundland. There is a huge cod shortage in Newfoundland, and that is due to over fishing. A couple of other places that are experiencing over fishing are the North Sea and the East China Sea.
