[69] Depleted Fishing Grounds / 枯竭的漁場, 1991
Marine fisheries provide food, income and employment for over 200 million people worldwide. An ever-growing, high-tech fishing effort yields over a hundred million metric tons of seafood each year. 15 of the world's 17 major ocean fisheries are either depleted or over-exploited. Over 90% of the large fish species in the world's oceans (such as tuna, swordfish and cod) have been fished out in the last 70 years.
漁業能夠提供食物,並且是全球兩億人口的工作收入來源。日漸進步的捕撈科技讓產業可於每年生產超過一億噸的海鮮。世界上17個主要海洋漁業中就有15個已經枯竭或被過度開採。在過去的70年裡,世界海洋中超過九成的大型魚類(如鮪魚、箭魚和鱈魚)都已被捕撈上岸。
