#Oceans are crucial for all life. In marine ecosystems, direct exploitation of organisms (mainly fishing) has had the largest relative negative impact on nature since 1970. #IPBES7 #GlobalAssessment

We knew this. Lack of habitat destruction (compared to terrestrial) is the main reason why most fish stocks bounce back quickly once fisheries are managed effectively. The main exception, of course, is trawling.

Let’s build the deep ocean into #IPBESGlobal as biodiversity in the deep faces many challenges in the 21st century. DOSI @DeepStewardship can help!

@edyong209 has something to say about that 55% figure. theatlantic.com/science/arch…

Wait, So How Much of the Ocean Is Actually Fished?

One prominent study said 55 percent, its critics say 4 percent, and they both used the same data.
