    After watching the documentary Seaspiracy on Netflix (which I highly recommend everyone to watch) it is evident that commercial fishing is not regulated as much as we expect and our oceans and waterways are being depleted at alarming rates. If it continues this way there will be no more fishing in less than 20 years. Huge amounts of dolphins, sharks, whales and other sea-life are caught and discarded as byproduct. Without these creatures our oceans and reefs will die. The fishing industry also contribute around 50% of all plastic waste into the oceans, killing further species with their fishing nets and gear that end up dumped at sea. I am deeply concerned about this issue. What can we do other than not buy fish and try to educate others about the multi billion dollar industry that our governments are covering up? Cottia, Brisbane
