Popular seafood species in sharp decline around the world

Of the populations analyzed in this study, 82 per cent are below the level that can produce maximum sustainable yields because they are being or have been caught at a rate that takes out more than is regrown. This also means that fishers are catching less and less fish and invertebrates over time, even if they fish longer and harder.

grocery store.

I always can't help but wonder how much goes to waste, given how short the shelf-life of seafood is. Were I to buy some I would do so knowing I'm paying a huge premium for the pretty-looking, but clearly wasteful display I bought it from.

So I pretty much never do.
