So what does it look like to give fish a break and let them recover?Protection can take many forms.In national waters,governments can set limits about how, when, where, and how much fishing occurs,with restrictions on certain boats and equipment.Harmful practices, such as bottom trawling, can be banned altogether,and we can establish marine reserves closed to all fishing to help ecosystems restore themselves.There's also a role for consumer awareness and boycotts to reduce wasteful practices,like shark finning,and push fishing industries towards more sustainable practices.
