Research
The subject of fishing in the Philippines is vast, starting with commercial fishing, ranging to the export of exotic fish to be sold as pets. I have looked into various websites, documentaries and charities in order to get a more in-depth look into the shady industry.
The FISH Project:This website focusses on the environmental issues of overfishing in the seas on the Philippines. It also looks at the problems of overfishing and the factors which contribute towards this issue. http://oneocean.org/fish/the_philippine_fisheries_situation.html |
Illegal Fishing:Illegal, unreported and unregulated (IUU) fishing is very hard to track, this website summarieses the key facts and figures about the illegal trade and fishing. It also has a section which is dedicated to the illegal fishing acts within the Philippines. |
