Asia's Shrinking Fish Stocks: What Happens When We Run Out Of Fish? | Insight | Full Episode
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 20 июл 2024
- The world is facing a food crisis. The U.N. World Food Programme warned that "a record 345 million acutely hungry people are marching to the brink of starvation”. And one of the world’s most important protein sources is dwindling - fish.
Two-thirds of the world's fish stocks are either fished at their limit or overfished. In the South China Sea, Vietnamese fishing boats vie with Chinese fleets for shrinking fishing grounds. In Indonesia, rising fuel prices mean fishermen are leaving their boats in the docks, unable to afford traveling beyond the overfished coastal waters. In India, climate change and heatwaves are wreaking havoc on wild fisheries and fish farms, as water temperature becomes unconducive for aquaculture.
What are the solutions? Can we save our fishing industries in time?

I already own shares of Tattooed Chefs and Kairos Minerals, and I'll buy some Corsair as well. Sure, I don't mind having these equities sit around for a few years, but I'd also like to appreciate short-term profitable investments that could, say, turn $50K into $200K.
Most newbies either do not understand the power of compound interest, or are just impatient. For the average Joe, however, I think it is just best to invest and just wait, which is reliable, albeit extremely long-- lots of years. Or just use a professional analyst and speed up wealth creation. Most people underestimate the power of the latter.
@@selenajack2036 I'm happy to have stumbled upon this discussion. If you don't mind, could you tell me the name of the financial adviser who helps you with your investments and how I might contact them? It Intrigues me to keep learning
@@adenmall7596 I've worked with a few different financial advisors, but I ultimately chose ELEANOR ANNETTE ECKHAUS because she seems to be very thorough and knowledgeable about the financial market. I have made more profits with her guidance than I ever did when I invested on my own using RUclips.
@@selenajack2036 Thanks, her website popped up on the first page immediately I searched her, I read through her resume and seems pretty tight, so I booked a call to discuss with her.
Singapore news media should concern about the environmental devastation in Cambodia. They export huge of sand along the Mekong river to Singapore. The government sacks most of the villagers and their houses collapsed. They don’t even have land certification since the Red Khmer destroyed everything.
I watched that documentary as well, very concerning piece that is for sure!
Same, alots of stealing sand in Vietnam & sales to Singapore as well. Many rivers get affected by its & locals villages houses affecting.
Singapore stopped importing sand from Cambodia since 2016.
If this is how humans fish, catching both eggs, young and mature fish... leaving no fish to create newer generations... well.... Know what? we deserve what's coming. We are all Darwin award winners.
While I love watching documentaries like this, the human impact on the environment globally is incredibly sad. It is also apparent that overpopulation of the world seems to be a real thing, something that no one talks about very much, but remains strongly etched in my mind at least.
Don’t breed. Educate the rest. But sadly religions are one of the root of the issue.
As an eco scientist, I believe the best way to save the earth is to kill yourself. When you set an example, the rest of the world and the environment will benefit. Once everyone is gone, the fish will thrive and the soil will be fertile with lush vines and weeds.
Yes not everyone gets to off load their population to 3 other continents by colonizing them like the Europeans eh and decrease their population density considering how mostly chilly and non arable europe is
Yeah Uk would have 4 times it's current population density if all the Anglo saxons lived in it and not in the colonized lands . You guys should be the last ones to talk about over population
@@Timholle You are exactly right. While I say that, I do have two children and am willing to accept blame for contributing to the mess that we find ourselves in.
We are the common denominator in this massive problem. We are the problem.
Living isn’t a problem
No we are not Gov everywhere do
Our population size is the problem. It creates an imbalance in the ecosystem. Some events are bound to happen to correct the imbalance. We just may not like the results.
2:25 when he said "kuwe" It's not fish cake, it referred to a specific fish called trevally (or giant trevally / GT).
Greed more than need is the problem.
That's the answer to everything according to your simplistic mindless indoctrination, right? That was easy!
Where do you think most of the fish end up? In Westerner’s mouths.
@@realisthmong Well I did say 'greed' and not 'hunger'.
@@realisthmong China is also a major consumer.
Make fish farms and let the wild fish grow their populations. After that regulate the amount fished. If you do this over time it should fix this issue. I know setting up fish farms will be the biggest issue however, waiting for the ocean to run out of fish is just silly. The world should work together to save the fish populations.
it is better to farm fish and understand when fishes take their woman so that the population grow... Im a real fish eater
You are an idiot. Are you going to pay the millions of fishermen who relies on fishing for a living? How are they going to farm fish? They have no income to build a farm. You demand them to work for a big American company for 1 dollar a day?
Feed them what? You're running out of smaller fish too
Fish farms cause polution, increase desease and parisites on the surounding area. Forcing countrys to deal with their population and stop exporting ppl is the only answer. Stop funding poverty and make it more costly to send money overseas. But first you have to deal with illegal immigration or anything you try will fail. Maybe stop dual citizenship too. Accountability in govt would prob help.
@@albertoandrade9807 fish kibble
Enjoyed this emmensly. I'm fortunate and do not have to depend on fishing directly as those in this documentary. I can purchase wild fish or clean fish depending on its source.
I do not buy farmed fish or shrimp as it is as best polluted by the farming methods employed.
We aren't just running out of fish but have already collapsed some species.
I understand the hardships this causes for many regardless of their country of residence. Small catch fishermen are at a severe disadvantage to support themselves and their family. Once the fish disappear in some areas so will we! This is a world wide issue not just local one.
I have seen some good results from shrimp (prawn) farming in Los Angeles USA. Yep in the city not using the ocean. The farming aquaculture is very precise and had good results so far. Does not involve sea water pens to grow the product. No contaminated water or antibiotics used. 4 months and large prawns harvested. No tank contamination due to precise management and understanding. Looks like others are heading in that direction. Can we farm enough fish products to sustain us?. I don't know! But as thinking human beings we should give it a chance.
I can only wish those well mentioned in this presentation.
Good overall presentation, thank you!
If I live long enough I'll be able to witness the crash of fish stocks, mass starvation and the fall of man. Sad times. If things were better regulated years ago and greed wasn't an issue there wouldn't be half these problems that we're seeing but that is the human condition.
🤔 problem is the world never agree on any issue, some for some against…it’s like the war…had we all agreed on something, the problem would be solved!
The solution is simple, don't go fishing for awhile. Let the supply of fish replenish.
Sure. Don't fish forever and the supply will definitely be better. California enforced MLPAs to limit rockfishing deeper than 150 feet for many years. Now they depleted all the rockfish less than 150 feet. This year, the law has changed to force people to fish deeper than 300 feet. Now watch the deeper fish get depleted.
For Tuna we are catching the fish that is in their youth, how can they reproduce
Great infos. Thank you.
Its funny how the lady complain that they used to catch 40-50kg of fish per day and now they can't even catch 5 kg. Did she even stop to think the reason was because SHE was part of the problem that caused the fish stocks to be depleted by catching way more than she need? Its not sustainable to catch that many fish. Imagine there were thousands of other fisherman doing the same thing to the fish stocks. People have to know their limits and stop when they are being too greedy. You can catch 40kg of fish today and catch nothing in a few short years or limit the catch so there will be fish in the future.
Time to invest in Fish farming.
Factory ships, by-catches, lax laws regarding minimum sizes, over-fishing, rising population, poor regulations on fish farms etc..
I try to avoid fish from fish farms from develpoing countries.
So who's to blame?
Please look inside yourself.
"Too much of anything, is no good."
It is about time to increase the fishery industry using hightech tanks to brew fish from young with mass production.
Stop smoking that crack pipe. They tried doing the same with white sea bass in California. The program's success is still yet to be determined after almost 20 years of releasing young fish and even putting in a size limit for catches.
Reduce food wastage.. catch too much and mostly end up at gargabe bins due to unsold
pollution is first and OVERFISHING is second. Its a problem in Cambodia
Ah, i love the smell of war and the faint sounds of drums in the morning.. gradually getting harder to ignore over the past years. Rice, fish, freshwater, Tech Megacorps, insane autocrats.. i'm confident that we will be at each others throats, on a global scale, in this century. Cant wait to end this charade in a glorious meele.
Run out because you didn’t just fish enough for you and your family but fish a mountains of fish sale .. I know everyone need to make a living but gosh fish also need times to breed … honestly humans population is vastly huge fish isn’t enough to fill everybody stomach 😅
Is there such protein deficiency in this world?
there is just too many people in this world.
Stop fornicating, sterilize a percentage of your population; not going to happen. No politician wants to touch this topic and thus we are doomed to contaminate and destroy food sources until there is mass starvation, suffering and death for all of Earth's creatures. Nature always wins, but not before we destroy it.
Wrong.
Don’t breed. Educate the rest too. Sadly, religion’s one of the main root of the issue
Stop breeding humans death will be certain for you, if u dont
First of all, i would like to take this chance to thanks those legal fishermen who wake up early to farm for fish and seafood.
As i just have a surgery in Feb, i realised that i am unable to eat most meat and some vegetables. I feel disgusted after taking the 1st mouth and if i force myself to take a few more bite i end up puking yellow liquid for a whole day.
Right now i can only eat slice fish porridge. Tried chicken and pork and peanut all make me puke. I can't imagine if we no longer can get fish. But i believe in my lifetime this will not happen.
Half the fish get washed anyhow. Go to the markets in the evening before closure. Tons of stuff isn't sold yet and is reduced in price because it's going in rhe garbage within a couple hours.
Fish spoils quickly.
Fish are pets, eat dogs.
I grew up eating fish. Fish back in the late 1980's & early 1990's were cheap. But after mid 1990's fish became so expensive & continues to be expensive till today.
It was bound to happen. But like pork and beef, fish can be farmed. We will be eating more and more farmed fish in the future. Good for fish in the ocean and good for people.
China vacuums up all fish to use for food in fish farms. So what will the fish farms feed their fish then?
Dead zone of bengal bay,where there is algae,it isn't the algae can be used for producing a bio diesel from algae 🤔
The State of Indonesia is very lucky to have its own vast maritime territory ✌The potential for fish resources in Indonesian waters is 9.931 million tonnes per year with the highest potential found in WPP 718 (Arafura Sea) of 1.992 million tonnes/year (20%), in WPP 572 (Indian Ocean west of Sumatra and the Sunda Strait) of 1.228 million/year (12%) and in WPP 711
Not stopping them rape ING Australia nw coast and murdering everything they catch is it
I mean we take from the ocean, but what do we give it?
Plastic. Lots of plastic.
Imagine when china was shooting missiles In the China sea when pelosi came to visit Taiwan. All those poor fish 😢
of course fish stock always dwindling, fisherman sometimes uses idiotic method to catch fish
The Ocean called, they're running out of shrimp
Sounds like Sails can make a comeback now!!! Just pay for your boat and.....DONE!!!! NO MORE FUEL COST
Easy, you just park your fleet around the Galapagos islands for a month and collect everything
Can't imagine when there are no more fish...
The Chinese think they own the world, the Australian Navy always catches Chinese boats illegally fishing in Australian waters.
💩👎👎
Why just focus on chinese boats when there are clearly multiple causes?
they do a lot of farming, over 80% of the world farming. This is a western narrative that is incorect.
@@havencat9337Dont listen to this copy pasting ching chong bot.
@@albback8176
Your whataboutism attempt is tiresome , and weak at best .
The world needs to start on solutions, not more defensive misdirection and squawking.
But in the spirit of transparency , to answer your question:
Because this is a culprit/perpetrator that is not just harming the fish stocks, but also grossly infiltrating the sovereign waters and EEZs of multiple countries . China is simply doubling-down on the misery they’re causing. Enough of this “Who, us??We didn’t do anything !” BS.
These are correctable human-factors .
Only the Hawaiians knew how to take only what is needed. It's called sustainability. Greed and sustainability don't mix.
Most eat rice and spam now.
The India news channel WION just loves to not report stuff like this. But instead how perfect India is with its not corrupt politicians who would never let anything bad happen
I became aware of that news outlet 6-8 months ago and initially thought, great a refreshing unbiased news agency. That lasted about a week before you could see through them like a factory fresh vehicle windshield. You are 100% correct, according to WION everyone elses crap stinks except theirs. Needless to say , I stopped watching their bs.
True, I once commented something under one of their video. I received huge amount of dislikes and hatred replies from Indians. I'm an Indian but never proud of my country because they have lot of shady business going on but ask every Indian they're so proud of India. This is how media and cinema made them biggest fools in the world.

But the population of East Asians are on the decline
@@sayanbiswas3563 soon there wont be any fish and most of wild animals, because planet turned into a toxic hell by humans
@@sayanbiswas3563Yes but their consumption is on the rise.
What happens when we run out of fish. Oh I know - we go hungry!
They are not fish producers. They are fish extinguishers.
when will we run out of CNA?
with thousands of Chinese fishing boats sweeping the sea regardless of regulation, can't expect thing get better :(
sea bass in the dirty oil-filled channel? imagine the fish poo at the bottom of the shallow top notch quality there
Question what to do
Answer is every fishing vessel must NOT be empty they must take out fish food plant based as they travel they must feed the fish shrimp.....
i think covid is a good lesson to learn from. u see during the lock down, the earth repairs itself and became greener, so did the corals n the fish population. it takes 1 covid every year to let the earth survive.
We are over fishing the oceans and over gracing the lands, yet some of the smart minds in the world don't think the world is over populated. When the smartest act so dumb what hope do we have?
Aside from climate changes adversely affected our ocean ecological system, large scale of commercial fishing method from big countries are not bringing any positivity to all these marine species long term survivability and sustainability either, fisherman will face rapidly depleted fish stock in open ocean and river, getting bountiful catch for small time fishermen is highly unlikely in the future.
They can eat veggie fish, we already have veggie burgers lol
We started running out of everything, 2 billion people ago.
"What happens when we run out if fish?" We eat our neighbors.
you know, if we switched to planned economy where we are not competing with eachother and are instead genuinely cooperating, this wouldn't be an issue, and I mean on a global scale. We can have times when we fish while the fish we cultivate grow, then switch to let the ocean population grow. we can do so much if we genuinely cooperated, instead we use debt and money to coerce cooperation, and that has lead to the troubles we have today.
"What Happens When We Run Out Of Fish?" .. We can always eat each other
first they need to learn how to use aquaculture not just destroy their surroundings
This is unbelievable. More than two years of global lockdown amidst COVID have significantly given the opportunity for ocean stocks to recover.
Two years is enough to replenish the vast amount of fish that’s been caught for say a century? 😂 Is not as simple as that.
Ha where ya been. You left out pollution, overfishing and collapsing fisheries just to name a few issues.
Do you know where the Grand Banks are? They are off the coast or within costal waters of Newfound land Canada and Main USA. For 500 hundred years we all fished them. Then came along the factory fishing fleets after WW 2. Flounder was the big catch but factory fishing took everything not just being selective. Collapsed about 30 years ago. It's all our fault period. The USA and Canada should have done more to protect it and sustain it, but like everything else it didn't get the right support.
We are our own worst enemy period.
After 3 generations as fishermen my dad stop this year ending time thx I never start doing fish we never eat many fish .supermarkets or fish farm no thx never ever ,learn to eat plastic 😂
We have 8 billion people. No one wants to start there we always like to factor in all these people instead of stemming how many people we have to help nature. We always seems to believe conservation and tech are the answers but they're really punting on the issue.
farm raising, I guess, Americans are ok, we only eat salmon, tilapia, flounder and catfish and tuna. we're not super adventurous as our Asian brothers.
Death by starvation is slow - Mary Hunter Austin
Wow, I don't even eat 2kg of fish a year.
That is because you can afford red meat. Most people in third world country can't afford red meat and only can afford fish as a source of protein.
@@ahndeux No, I don't eat red meats, I eat mostly chicken and pork. Fish is more expensive here I live. I think people who eat fishes every meal are quite well off.
@@Lu5ck Umm... Pork is a red meat. The pork industry does a good job at pretending they are not, but its obviously a red meat.
@@ahndeux Don't pretend,. you were trying to imply beef. Tsk tsk. Regardless, pork and poultry still cheaper than fish at my place.
@Lu5ck No, I said red meat. YOU implied beef.
No regulations is why
most fishes people eat in china are now farmed fishes along the shore.
Sorry but they're not. They rape the oceans for fish and their own consumption.
Also they can sell factory frozen fish for big profits.
Farmed fish can not sustain them.
I always say the chinese should just eat other Chinese.
Well, the used to in the 1950's.
Thanks Mao
Eat bugs or other animals, so many choices.. if you don't like meat fry up some tree leaves or grass, shrubs or anything else. Heck pull your neighbors flowers and eat those suckers.
Google >>> ''China alone provides 62% of the world’s farmed fish production, with an average growth of 5.3 percent per year in the period 2000-2018, reaching a record 82.1 million tonnes in 2018''. Why not show this statistics?
I wouldn't consume any food from the PRC period. Tainted with mercury just to start with. Have you seen how they raise tilapia? Check it out as I'm not saying squat. If someone conveys good info in a thread is. most won't bother to find out if it's factual or not.if
I believe the answer is death and extinction
Tbh are we talking about climate change or just dwindling fish?
did he just say baby fishes? minnows ya gnit ...
To complete this story you also take into the account the Valeriepieris circle. HALF the human race live inside this small geographic area of 4000km in radius roughly around the South China Sea. Ask yourself how much fish would all these people in this region eat and how to feed them all. Obviously if they need to catch fish to feed these people the most convenient fishing areas would be in the seas around this tiny region. How large is the body of water here compared to the body of water outside the circle. And yet all the other nations outside the circle will start bitching about territorial waters when the people in the circle start fishing outside their zone
@@issadraco532 Should they have done it like the white scmdogs that sailed out of their tiny land and took over entire continents like America and Australia and now claiming larger bodies of land and water. Basically colonized the entire world and claimed it as their own. Let's not forget that the entire region was exploited by these whites for their natural resources and enriching themselves for centuries. Stay in your waters? Tell that to you own efn people in the first place.
Back in the 90's they claimed all fish gone by year 2000 ....since then the world's population and need for fish grew, yet the fish were gone in year 2000 remember..
We are running out of everything because too many of us people.
Solution don't catch fish for awhile.
Zero fishing regulation and mass netting of any and all fish stock....but let's just keep blaming climate change for everything.
Greed, gluttony, covetousness, etc
It's simple to understand. Put a bunch of rats oñ a cage. Give them enough water and food to feed 3 times as many you put in. Then slowly reduce the amount of food and water each day. Soon they will hit critical shortage where the supply can't support the population. Those friendly rats will start to bicker. As things get worse so will the fights.i fear we a nearing the end of the experiment.
China do all the unsustainable fish catching, the rest of us just farm away. Don't assume you will have food.
wild sea fish may getting decrease, only alternate for fish industry will be domestic river fish breeding to feed people
Thank you Japan for dumping radioactive water into the sea. It will definitely help by making bigger giant mutant fishes
The amount of radiation leaked is next to nothing.
Give a man a fish. He will eat for the day. Give a man a fishing pole and he'll wipe out a species.
Just pay the fishermen for a year or two to stop fishing
Pollution and human greed.
I’m out of a job!
In India we have much fish 🐠🐠🐠
I don't think do judging by this stream. What I'd too much fish? Means you can catch all.of them if you want to.
no child porn no sex with minors no illegal drugs and no illegal firearms in any nation.
the planet will survive. humans, probably not
Our oceans will run out of fish in 2050.
Same as Africa, fish populations completely decimated, the Chinese also on the African coasts
Same in Ireland. Its down to giant fishing factories
So..... stop eating fish. You don't need sushi to live. Most of the people shown here literally depend on the sea
they are growing Bugs for as to eat .
I don't think Asia is running out of fish. Indonesia have a lot of fish in their wide sea. Malaysia have a lot of fish as well. Philippines, Japan, Korea and Taiwan are surrounded by sea with a lot of fish. Only Singapore don't have sea, that is why they import fish from other countries.
You sound like a really dumb person.
I disagree. Not saying more than that but get your facts right if your going to comment. WTF I'm done with this chat.
@@mooglemy3813 Malaysia has a lot of Dory fish. Indonesia has a lot of variety fish, Tenggiri, Tuna, Patin, etc. Thailand and Philippines has fish as well because they are surrounded by sea. While Singapore import fish from another country because they are surrounded by US and local military, that is why they are the only one who is facing the fish crisis, particularly when other countries limit their fish exports. This is the fact.
China is building too many dams in China and Laos. Fish can't swing up stream to lay eggs, spawn and multiply.
Absolutely correct. But every country has done the same. We're not too bright huh?
No problem for rich Singapore, just import expensive fish or and and other seafood from Alaska or anywhere in the world! That is what evil money is for, isn't it?
Cold water sea food is the best, shrimp in cold water has flavor unlike prawn which has little to no taste.
We have a 30 by 30 plan to grow 30% of our own food by 2030. Stop importing so much as many agriculture and food production industry are collapsing due to lack of fertilisers or climate change issues.
funny how they breed breed breed, fish fish fish, then wonder where all the fish are...
More chicken farms and more vegetables farms. Polluted water and climate change even fish farms are going to have poor yield.
Let's see if they are brave enough to blame China for over fishing everywhere, even in waters that don't belong to them.
You are right, shameless to steal food from poorer countries
People live in US and G7 countries consume 10x more than average Chinese. Some westerners are shameless when it comes to hypocrisy.
@@donyuan47 Who's fault is it that China has such a big population in the first place? Did the US/G7 encourage Chinese people to reproduce 40 years ago? I Don't think so.
@@donyuan47 Apples and oranges you paid shill. Our industrial fishing doesn't even come close to the disaster of over fishing that China is doing. China is responsible for 44% of EEZ fishing which is stealing fish from poorer countries.
And you have the gall to call me shameless. You disgust me. You deserve to have all nations immediately sink or hijack all Chinese fishing vessels caught illegally fishing.
US the biggest fishing industry.
