"We see very clearly the end of the line. It shows that we're going to run out of viable fisheries, out of all seafood species by the year 2050; so within our lifetimes, certainly within the lifetimes of our children" (Qtd. ScienCentral, 2006).

"It's time for leadership on global fisheries issues. It's time to act," says Dr. Pauly, Director of the Fisheries Centre at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver, Canada. "We don't need more science. This is a message that's different from many of my colleagues. Of course we need to learn more about fish. But research is often publicly funded on the grounds that this is an alternative to other political action. We know enough to act to prevent the continued decimation of global fisheries" (Qtd. Hooked on Fishing).

Our Vision

We are scientists developing the best possible solution to save global fish populations and marine ecosystems from collapse and provide sustainable global fishing. We must speak for the fish and the solution above all else: while our solution focuses on saving the oceans, it will be debated, altered, and implemented by political figures with the needs of humanity as a priority. Thus, a solution that is ocean centered will be implemented to balance the needs of both oceans and humans. However, it is important to keep in mind that while we place our focus on fish, preserving fish populations and ecosystems will ultimately benefit humanity the most and is therefore universally desirable.

...

Implementation
We will achieve this solution through the implementation of an eclectic and socially sensitive educational campaign, international diplomatic measures, and the promotion of healthy ecosystems through sustainable fishing as defined and achieved by several implementation areas (i.e. aquaculture, technology restrictions, etc.).
