      the average person has very little way to reduce the number of plastic nets in the water

      Besides the obvious and 100% viable option of just not eating fish.

        Now I feel better about my weird dietary preferences.

        I’m doing my part!

        The average person cannot make the connection between the food they eat and the animal it was. People act so appalled by the torturous conditions in animal farms, and then stop at McDonald’s on their lunch break to pick up some chicken nuggets, totally unaware of the irony

        Yeah eating fish is not sustainable, especially considering how global fish population is dropping rapidly. Sadly, my dad loves fish…

          It seems to be working well after about 6 years.

              Seems the problem is beyond finding a ‘cure-all’. Multiple strategies will be necessary.

                I’d prefer an effective strategy

                  …which somehow doesn’t include producing less garbage?

                    less garbage isn’t created regardless of whether you or I buy fish

                      An individual abstaining from owning slaves didn’t reduce slave populations either. Think they were as dumb and ineffectual as I am? Fine.
