Overfishing has emerged as a significant threat to oceanic life, with the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations estimating that the number of overfished stocks has tripled in the past 50 years, and 90% of species are now fully or overfished.

Extreme weather events caused by climate change can adversely impact critical fish habitats like coral reefs.

The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) predicts that 90% of coral reefs could be destroyed if ocean temperatures increase by 1.5°C.

Without these key habitats, the National Academy of Sciences estimates that over 50% of reef fish species have seen declines to less than half their original numbers.

Shockingly, 45% of fish worldwide ingest microplastics, with an average of approximately 5.9 pieces found per fish according to the journal, Nature.

These minuscule plastic particles, less than 5mm in size, can act as potential carriers for environmental toxins. This raises alarming concerns about the potential health risks associated with these harmful substances.

JAPAN

Japan ranks in the top 5 worldwide per capita seafood consumption. It is also a top seafood producer with over 4.2MT of fish produced per year according to the World Economic Forum. Fish is deeply rooted, not just in Japanese cuisine, but also in its culture.

However, with the falling rates of catch and increasing number of endangered species, Japan’s seafood culture is at risk.
USA

In 2021, Americans consumed a whopping 20.5 pounds of seafood per capita, a 7.5% pound increase from the previous year according to Seafood Source.

Yet some of the most popular species like cod, halibut, and snapper are still struggling to recover their populations due to overfishing.
SINGAPORE

From fish head curry to laksa to deliciously steamed red snapper, seafood is near and dear to the hearts and stomachs of many Singaporeans.

However, red snapper is listed as ‘Vulnerable’ under IUCN classifications, and young red snapper are often caught within the bycatch of shrimp trawlers, negatively impacting their population.
