- If the various estimates we have received… come true, then we are in the situation where 40 years down the line we, effectively, are out of fish.
- United Nations Environment Program leader Pavan Sukhdev • Regarding the possibility of the oceans running out of fish. The UN says that the problem can be prevented if subsidies to fishing fleets are cut, and fish are given safe zones where commercial fishing can’t take place.
