A recent study has said that in 43 years, there will be NO seafood.
Fish will probably become even more expensive in the future.
I absolutely love fish, but the thought of it being extinct is horrible.

no studies can really predict the future of the planet. tomorrow will find the way to reverse the damage done already.
ok

It is the simple fact that so many people think such a thing is "impossible!" that accounts for the human-driven extinctions in our history. Like the buffalo. And the dodo. In fact, in a UN report of 1995, the total number of extinctions caused by man in the last four hundred years was put at five hundred animal species, and six hundred and fifty plants. But mostly we don't care, so it just goes on...

It under normal circumstances takes a species longer than 43 years to become extinct especially considering that they are not even listed as endangered as of right now.
However it is something to consider and take seriously looking at the world today

Atlantic Cod is virtually extict because of overfishing. Global climate change along with industrial and agricultural pollution runoff continues to destroy fish stocks to levels of extinction.
Not only are fish stock dwindling, they are becoming more poisonous to eat. Methylmercury for some fish are so high that they are toxic enough to make you very sick and may kill you.

well if we fish fishes at this rate, then we wont have any in 43 years... but when the fish source become less, the price will go up, and less ppl will be able to buy it. so the fish will be able to reproduce faster than human comsumption, so its not gonna extinct, also scientists will probably find ways to decrease the dying rate for the fish babies

Hi. I think you are referring to the study of commercial fishing and it's impact on the ability of fish to procreate. Yes, it is possible for some popular species to become extinct. : http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2006/11/02/health/webmd/main2147223.shtml

It could happen, have you realized how much waste we are dumping into oceans, how much pollution is going into the air? They might be able to survive, but not able to eat. Plus in 43 years are we going to still be around, we are all killing each other, polluting each other. Think about it.

Sure it could happen. We could overfish so much that there are very few fish left to catch, the health of the oceans deteriorate, and then nothing...
but I suppose we'll always have fish farms.

That study is worthless. Most seafood in this day,and age with the exception of shellfish are raised in huge nets in the ocean. It's called ocean farming. almost all store boughten fish are raised in ocean farm net's,and anyone who thinks we'll be out of fish in 43 years is a moron.
