Sounds Fishy

Backstory: The fishery industry has experienced world-wide declines in entire fish populations, especially in the highly fished northern Atlantic Ocean. As some of these fisheries began to collapse there was a determined move to obtain even greater yields of fish by increasing fishing efforts augmented by advances in new technologies. The times of an overabundance of fish is quickly coming to a close. As a result, aquaculture and mariculture is growing quickly in an attempt to offset the decrease in field populations and meet consumer demands.

Activity

Activity: This is an activity that can be done by the student or by the entire classroom. As some students may not eat much seafood, there are usually a few students that can share their information and knowledge with the entire class. In order to obtain harvesting data for the table below, you will need to use information that you can readily obtain at your local seafood grocer. The purpose of this activity is to get a better understanding of changes in fish availability in your geographic location and where each category is being harvested. Once you have completed the table address the following questions.
