Modern Marvels: How Fishing Feeds the Globe (S10, E65) | Full Episode

When I come back I don’t want to be a chicken or a fish.

Humans are the ultimate destroyers of the earth.

MAKE THESE FARMING PENS OUT ...OFF COAST SO THEY CAN BE IN THE DEEP WATER COLUMN AND CURRENTS SO THE DETRITUS CAN BE WHISKED AWAY RATHER THAN DESTROYING PRECIOUS INLAND ESTUARIES!

I heard sea turtle tastes like cube steak.

that fish fillet machine is truly amazing.....I wish I had one!

PLEASE READ THIS, trawler is not environmentally safe for are oceans anywhere! These big money trawlers catch what is called “by catch” it’s every other species that there not allowed to catch, what happens is they fish they cannot keep have been dragged across the ocean and end up dying no matter what, a single trawler can claim 1.2 million pounds of by catch (usually more cause they try to hide it) that’s 1.2 of damage injured fish that will not survive after being dragged Across the bottom of the ocean! Alaska fishing industry is being destroyed over these big money trailers and no one will listen !

Fished outa Gloucester many a times

A century or more ago, there used to be a commercial hunting industry taking place. Deer, turkeys, ducks, and of course, buffalo were almost wiped out in North America. Commercial fishing still hangs on. As the worldwide human population grows, and as formerly poor third-world move into the middle-class, the pressure on fish populations level grows into unsustainable levels. Eventually, the ecosystem will balance itself out, at the expense of us all. Get Ready!

Well, not a single salmon in Puget sound is indigenous to united states' rivers. All of them were fished to Extinction. Current salmon were implanted to restore the runs once destroyed. I was shocked to learn such a disgusting thing from Salmon university that's been tracking it since the beginning, let's not forget a dam on every river killed billions of fish.

The end off the beauty’s conning to an end ? Greedy world people terrible way to destroy nature 🥲

Sounds like figuring out how to use the bycatch is the elephant in the room nobody wants to put much effort into dealing with. Avoidance is great, but once you've caught and killed those fish, wasting them is stupid.

Trawling needs to be banned.. props to these fishermen no sleep working 20hrs a day smfh some not even worth it...

We can only imagine, in today's corrupt environment, how much of that data the government is collecting is actually real. I was wondering how much money those government people receive from the fishing companies to make those numbers look as good as possible. Never trust a bureaucrat.

Food, Fortune and fun? Fish. LOL

My K12 Teachers and Coaches did a good job keeping me single and poor. Nothing practical, like this video, was allowed in my curriculum. Shame on the curriculum committee of my School Board. - TAV ❤️🇺🇲🥇

Support your local commercial fisherman

Stop

While mention was made of the depletion of target fish due to overfishing, nothing was said about the destruction of almost every structure on the bottom of the oceans by weighted bottom trawls. Many of these structures are fish nurseries which are destroyed and affects all fish growing there, not just the targeted fish.

Correct me if I am wrong, but I have heard several times that the pollock is a fish that produces rapidly and regenerates stocks faster than other fish.

The bottom line of all this is.......Everything is controlled by BIG MONEY. And they will continue to deplete and destroy all of the fish, crabs, oysters, clams.

One aspect remains in the Pacific; Japanese overfishing limits, and don't care. Atlantic cod proves need for enforcement of limits.

Statistical comment of how far fish travel is a problem of aquaculture.

I have been watching this video and at times wondering, do we really consume that much fish? I do realize that certain countries of the world have a diet based on seafood too. Still, it seems as though profit is the actual driving factor not feeding the world
When I was a boy, (1950's) there was a massive commercial fishery based in my home town, Cleveland, Ohio. They went after what is called "Jumbo (yellow) Perch". Any other fish was considered exotic and expensive. Industrial pollution of Lake Erie and other great lakes ended when large amounts of mercury was discovered in all great lakes fish. So, over fishing is not the only cause for concern. ;-)

Japan eats one fifth of the entire world fish catch.

all by-catch that has a market should be required to be processed and not wasted.....will add cost but allow to better manage the resource.

No we are not cleaning out the seas. The oceans take care of themselves for the most part. 43 years in the industry has shown me the way things work out there

New foundland!!!! Woot, woot! That's where my dad was born

im taking those pokeball sonar things with a app to fish for tuna

Another excellent video thank you so much such a joy to watch like and share!!!!

Dolphins are no different than fish because they breath air these say there like you. These idiots don't realize other fish breath air also not just dolphins I don't hear crying for them.

Farming fish products are toxic and the industry is very bad for the environment

I hate this type of fishing so much. It has destroyed our fisheries all across the globe

I dont see what difference it made that dolphins were caught in seining nets! We have to eat and were at the top of the food chain! We have to do what we have to do! These stupid scientists who have never done these jobs want to come up with all these restrictions and all this garbage taht ends up costing these poor fishermen tons of money and time that they dont have! I dont care if the stupid sea turtles become extinct! You cant eat them and they contribute nothing to the environment! So what if they become extinct! And as far as overfishing is concerned, let the small ones go so that they can reproduce and give us more fish to eat!

I grew up watching this show as a kid because my Dad only allowed me to watch educational programming during week days. It contributed so much into becoming a generally well informed, successful adult.

Get rid of seines go back to poles

Regulate American fisherman to bankruptcy! While the real offenders do whatever they want at lower overhead and USA can’t compete!

This is seriously probably one of the most important -- and widely unknown -- documentaries in the past fifteen years. This is a history I have never heard about.

Good episode

this show and how its made

Who are these fishermen feeding. A whole country of sumo wrestlers? It's just greed. They don't really control much. They ran out on one country, they will go to the next one. Asia on the other hand is stocking before fish is an endangered species.

Has anyone do a episode of these ship owners? Their life styles?. I bet most are driving Ferrari.

Lobster is a white men's meat. They will do their every effort to safe the species. Anything of the Atlantic Ocean can be strictly control. But any other ocean is a fair game.

WAIT WHAT😮? Did he say america extended from 12 me to 200 me and kicked everybody else off the water ?? WTF I hope I misunderstanding if not America really is bullies and they wonder why other country likes us 🤦🏽‍♀️
