Ocean Calls Podcast – Season 3 Ep. 6: What’s the secret recipe to restoring fish stocks?

Will there ever be more fish in the sea? Almost 90% of all marine fish stocks globally are now fully exploited or overfished, according to a study from the World Bank. 
In the Mediterranean region alone, more than 40% of marine mammals and a third of the total fish population have been lost in just half a century.
However, there does appear to be some hope for the future of the fishing industry, as new rules come into force.

In this episode of the Ocean Calls podcast, we're looking at what caused the now chronic problem of overfishing both globally and in Europe, and what is being done to improve the situation by both the EU and other organisations.
