Summary:
Imagine an ocean without fish. Imagine your meals without seafood. Imagine the global consequences. This is the future if we do not stop, think, and act. In this film, viewers see firsthand the effects of humanities global love affair with fish as food. It follows investigative reporter Charles Clover as he confronts politicians and celebrity restaurateurs, who exhibit little regard for the damage they are doing to the oceans. Scientists predict that if we continue fishing as we are now, we will see the end of most seafood by 2048, and the impact of overfishing extends beyond marine life. For consumers who innocently buy endangered fish, politicians who ignore the advice and pleas of scientists, fishermen who break quotas and fish illegally, and the global fishing industry that is precipitating disaster, this film is a wake-up call.
