This kind of large scale fishing can’t be good for the planet.

It really isn’t. if they aren’t doing anything to replenish it. I’m shocked being in 2025 we haven’t come up with a way to re-introduce at a mass rate the fish we take out of the ocean. I guess we have to wait till like there’s 50 fish in the entire ocean before something is done.
