一项研究表明,到本世纪中叶,普通人将不再吃得起海产品,因为海上几乎无鱼可捕了。是耸人听闻吗?这可是四个国家十多位研究人员共同得出的结论。由于过度捕捞对海洋生态系统造成的破坏,我们或许将来不得不面对这样的现实。随着舆论的关注,许多大公司已开始采取措施引导消费者购买能可持续捕捞的海产品。或许我们确实需要像文中说的那样“vote with our wallet”,不然我们的子孙后代也许只能在水族馆里见到什么是龙虾。
A study shows that by the middle of this century, ordinary people will no longer be able to afford seafood, because almost no fish can be caught at sea. Is it sensational? This is the conclusion drawn by more than a dozen researchers from four countries. Due to the damage caused by overfishing to the marine ecosystem, we may have to face this reality in the future. With the attention of public opinion, many large companies have begun to take measures to guide consumers to purchase sustainable seafood. Maybe we really need to “vote with our wallet” as the text says, otherwise our grandchildren may only see what lobster is in the aquarium.
