Sustainable Fisheries
Fish stocks in the oceans are declining; it is important to maintain these stocks at a level where breeding can still occur.
Give two ways fish stocks can be managed sustainably.
What is Sustainable Fisheries?

Which type of pollution can lead to eutrophication in lakes and rivers?

Fishing quotas: Limiting the amount of fish that can be caught in a season.
Protected areas: Regions where fishing is completely banned.
Sustainability means meeting our food needs today without compromising the ability of future generations to meet theirs.
