88% of all assessed fish stocks are estimated to be
> over-exploited
> • One third of assessed fish stocks are beyond ‘safe biological
> limits’
> • The blue-fin tuna is on the verge of being listed as an
> endangered species
> • 93% of North Sea cod are caught before they can reproduce
> • The EU is no longer capable of providing fish for its own people
> so its fishing fleets are over-exploiting seas around poor countries
> with the cooperation of corrupt local governments. This includes the
> Irish factory-trawler ‘Atlantic Dawn’ based in Killybegs but operating
> off the coast of west Africa
