Think of all the other fish and crustaceans that get harvested every day. Who is protesting for them?

Actually, we all can. Just ensure you only buy fish that has been line caught or sourced from managed reserves.

The main issue with any and all fishing is that in order to catch the most amount of fish, fishermen are destroying the habitats as well as removing more fish than can be replensished by natural reproduction.

Maybe someone can help out naming this documentary I watched (Channel 4, UK, couple of months ago). It showed that large Japanese corproration are now stockpiling certain types of fish and putting them on ice as there's so few left they'll be worth a small fortune soon.
