What year will all the fish in the ocean be eaten?

Question

I heard that in the year 2048, there will be no fish left, because everyone will have already eaten everything.

Answer 1

You have heard wrong. Somebody has just observed that fish populations declined by 1/42 last year and assumed that in 42 years they would all be gone, or something like that. There are some fish we don't catch or eat, and these at least will survive. But I also think that fishing would stop when the catch got so small that fishermen could no longer make money, and that would happen before the species went extinct.

Answer 2

The last fish in the ocean will be eaten at 18:07:51:33 Greenwich Mean Time in March 2053 by a starving aborigine that is stranded on Gilligan's Island. He is completely unaware that the blow fish he is trying to scale is the last fish in the world. He has ruined the Lenten season for all the religious types in the world - how thoughtless. When I have nothing else to worry about I might worry about the extinction date of fish; the incomprehisible minuteness of Al Gore's cranial cavity and where all of our reporters will go after death when they find out that God is a conservative and believes in reporting truthfully.

Answer 3

in 2048,but if we conserve our resources
they would last longer.

why do Yahoo! employ people / artificial intelligence programs to just re-hash the news of the day as "questions"?

is it that they want to give a fake impression of more activity than there really is?
