How long will the biosphere tolerate exploitation of the oceans? Are local fishermen a doomed species? What can be done to reverse the decline of fish stocks around the planet? This program documents the environmental and socioeconomic costs of excessive foshing, contrasting traditional maritime practices with large-scale fishing off Africa's coasts. Monopolization and the failure of international regulations are crucial topics.
