Followed by the restoration of Chilean Bass to the supermarket shelves, is the latest prediction reported in an extensive study by researchers from Dalhousie University in Halifax, Canada, that fishes will be stripped off from seafood menu by 2048, if the ocean species continue to shrink from the ocean space. Facts provide by the study shows that 64 large marine ecosystems (LMEs) in between 1950 to 2003 produced 83 percent of the global fisheries yield.
An earlier report on Eat Fish to live or Let the Fish Live, pointed out the necessity to balance between the Omega3 needs of individuals and the conservation of species.
However, the present context demands to keep a check on illegal fishing of endangered species and the promotion of sustainably caught fish, like the ones certified by the Marine Stewardship Council (MSC) like cockles, herring, and mackerel from the UK; salmon from the US and cod from the Bering sea.
Therefore, what calls for in the present context is the awareness of the sustainable caught fish both by the culinary industry and the home cooks, if they want to continue eating ethically correct food.
