Title: Fishing for the Future Gallery: What happens to the fish when?

URL: http://www.fishingforthefuturefilmfestival.ca/gallery_fish.html

Description: "The collapse of the once-gigantic North Atlantic cod stock twenty years ago should have been a wakeup call for fishery management throughout the world. It wasn't. Fishing practices worldwide have changed little. It is startling to watch some of the images in this gallery, to hear some of the voices, and to realise that many of the same practices that destroyed Newfoundland's cod fishery are still being employed around the globe. The placement of this gallery – between the other two – may be appropriate. Fish, after all, are intermediaries: a transit between humans and oceans, and perhaps our most accessible key to comprehending the watery environment which covers 70 percent of the earth's surface."
