Synopsis

The Oceans Today are being fished with greater ferocity and better technology than ever before. 90% of fishing stocks are exploited, and the future prediction of the health of our oceans are shaky. Joined by Rebecca Daniel from Marine Diaries, we discuss all things fishing. Should we be eating fish? Is there a way to eat fish sustainably? What are the current methods of fishing? and What do these truly look like? We talk about trawlers ripping along the ocean floors, about the dangers of targeting large predatory fish, and somehow end up on a long tangent about the intelligence of octopus. So if you want to learn about how your diet is impacting our ocean's health or simply about how an octopus escaped from an aquarium. Check out this weeks episode.
