News and current affairs
This means that once predator species become depleted, fishing pressure shifts towards plant-eating fish species, leading to precipitous declines in the numbers of herbivores on coral reefs.
Herbivorous fish are key players on coral reefs.
Second, we must restore coral reefs' capacity to cope with environmental change--their resilience--by protecting the fish stocks that keep seaweed in check, and thereby facilitate the recovery of coral populations from bleaching.
Without fish, seaweed dominance will prevent that recovery.
The catastrophic collapse of fish stocks around the world--on coral reefs and elsewhere--has provided hard lessons about managing fisheries.
More importantly, they provide a refuge for fish populations, a kind of insurance policy against stock collapse.
On coral reefs, these no-take zones can help insure that a portion of coral reef habitat sustains a healthy fish community, and secure the coral reef resilience that this brings.
In recent years, proposals have been considered that would establish marine reserves around the continent and end the risk of growing scarcity, or the outright disappearance, of a variety of species of fish and cetaceans.
Like forests, coral reefs provide multiple services - including tourism and fish nurseries, which help to sustain commercial fishing - and have an intrinsic value to people.
Global demand for fish consumption is growing, and so, too, is the global capacity to catch fish, driving some species to the point of extinction.
Improved aquaculture, in which fish are grown at manmade fishponds and reservoirs is still far from being a perfect technology, mainly for environmental reasons, yet it is enormously promising.
We would pass people fishing, perhaps reeling in their lines with struggling fish hooked at the end of them.
Not for fish.
We are clearly harmed if fish stocks dwindle to extinction.
Once I saw a man take a small fish out of a bucket and impale it, still wriggling, on an empty hook to use as bait.
My father told me that he could not understand how anyone could enjoy an afternoon spent taking fish out of the water and letting them die slowly.
For example, spiny dogfish is partly substituting for cod in many European fish-and-chip shops.
When the explorer John Cabot sailed off the coast of Newfoundland more than 500 years ago, vast shoals of cod slowed down his ships; crews could lower buckets over the side and fill them with fish.
Indeed, with the exception of wild berries, wild game, wild mushrooms, and fish and shellfish, virtually everything in North American and European diets has been genetically improved in some way.
There is no humane slaughter requirement for wild fish caught and killed at sea, nor, in most places, for farmed fish.
