Two simple words... human greed ! The human race uses huge nets and various methods to maximise catch sizes to feed a growing population. If something drastic isn't done soon - fish stocks will dwindle to such levels that it will simply no longer be worth it financially going to sea to fish. Thousands of people will lose their jobs - not just fishermen, but also in trades associates with the industry. The all-but extinction of fish species will also unbalance the oceans' ecosystem.
