Documentary: no more seafood by 2048

Documentary filmmaker Rupert Murrey was interviewed on Coast-to-Coast tonight, giving a glimpse into his new film "The End of the Line," which focuses on the global effects of overfishing. In his report, he said fisheries are catching fish about 5 times more than scientists are recommending to sustain a healthy habitat, while oddly enough depleting the very fish populations that the industry depends on. In China, investigations have discovered that fish catch reports have been overstated for more than 20 years in order to project bigger numbers than what they actually catch. True numbers show a downward trend. Meanwhile, salmon has been largely scarce and there have been reports that worms from farm raised fish have begun to affect the natural spawns. As far as seafood? Scientists say if the fishing industry continues as the way it is than we can count on not being able to order it by 2048.
