The phrase "There are plenty of fish in the sea" is about to lose its meaning

The Somali pirate crisis started from a related source. Many of their people were reliant on fishing for food and income. Then the civil war came, the government collapsed and took with it, any body capable of protecting Somali waters. Foreign fishing vessels came in and overfished the area. This led to fishing communities becoming impoverished and taking to one of the few lucrative (but high risk) activities to make money which was piracy.

Man, it'd be a real shame if hundreds of ships started disappearing in international waters. I mean, with their transponders off there's no way to tell where they even were! Who would their government even talk to about finding out what happened!? A tragedy for sure.

I am from Mauritania and it's unbelievable how the fish stocks went down in the past 25 years. fish used to be pleintiful, of quality and super cheap, now after a few years in US, I come back home and fish is as expensive as beef. mind you our population is only 4 millions, we had so much fish that no matter how much of it we fish we simply could not put a dent on it. back home when we were young, we used to hear local fishermen talking about meeting huge foreign boats in the high sea that took all the fish, it all makes sense now. not fair at all

I think you got the pound/ kilo conversion backwards. A kilo would cost 2.2 times a much as a pound

I recall a story called 'The Ape that ate the World' where massive trawlers are scraping the silt off the ocean floor, sifting the mud for any organic life. In the story, blue-green algea and krill are both critically endangered, being the only life left in the oceans.

Wendover should definitely do a video on sand mining now. Sand is one of the most heavily trafficked illicit substances on the planet and entire beaches have been illegally wiped out by miners all over the world, and don't even get me started on the Indian Sand Mafias/cartels. Sand mining has devastated the Yellow river basin and Poyang lake in China, the Mekong delta in Cambodia and Vietnam and plenty of other countries.
Sand is increadibly vital to our high tech civilization, without it we wouldn't have glass, the internet, computer chips, cement, and a myriad of other things but it's still not talked about enough.

These fleets are absolutely destroying the Galapagos. It's insane.

Sad to see how much biodiversity is being effectively sentenced to death in the oceans. Thank you sam and the team for bringing light to another important issue!

Indonesian here, and IUU regulation is severely still underestimated in our government's eyes, development wise.
Regardless of our moves to blow ships, keep in mind that monthly we could only capture 25 - <50 vessel, downright outplayed.
UAV and satnav would be good on monitoring but yet the development is outsined by new capital project.

As an Irish Subscriber for many years, I never opened a video so fast, brilliant watch. Hopefully your upload of this video brings this to an audience who may not have heard of this before.

So, the HAI mistakes have crossed over to Wendower now. 500/pound and 225/kg.

Sam is the "bringing-you-the-depressing-info-you-didn't-know-existed" alternative to Last Week Tonight when the writers are on strike. Thanks for fueling our despair for our future! :D

If the Chinese and other countries fishing industry find loopholes in the rules, change the rules/close the loopholes/be more aggressive with punishments. I’m sure after a few of the vessels catch high explosives instead of fish they’ll at least return to their normal waters.

Thank you so much for making this video! I work for a global ocean conservation organization on our fisheries and sustainabe seafood team - this was farily comprehensive and presented in such a captivating and interesting way. Loved it!

On the topic of sea nodules, they found the marks in the sea floor they made lasted decades and did not get leveled and washed away like they thought. Suggesting it’s more static and more vulnerable than we even originally thought.

I was first introduced to the problems of large international shipping vessel back when I was watching River monsters as a kid, just seeing how disheartened he would get whatever he saw them show up and realized he wouldn't find anything there and that it was ruining the local fishermen

This is an incredible documentary. The storytelling is captivating, the images of industrial scale fishing is fascinating and I’m excited to see how these laws shake out in the future.

Touching on the seascape, I wanted to suggest a topic for a future video. The logistics behind a container making it from one place in the world to another, getting passed from ship to ship to ship to ship etc. Appears to be a very complex logistical challenge. Right down your alley…
