Every indivitual fish has another preference. Say a species of fish is about 15 degrees centigrade, while the there will be some at 13 and some at 17,. And we know that from covid rigt. The more people are not vaccinated, the more variants you have. So if your population is very reduced because you have over fished it, then there will be fewer variants in the water. We can do this by reducing the fishing effort that we have that re duse the fishing quota to get more fish. This will allow us to make more money for our food supplies.
On this episode, we meet with Professor at the University of British Columbia and Founder of Sea Around Us, Dr. Daniel Pauly.
