martinezlaura+FollowCod Are Shrinking—And It’s Our FaultDid you know overfishing has made Baltic cod nearly half their size in just 20 years? Scientists found their DNA is literally changing because humans keep taking the biggest fish. It’s wild to see evolution happening this fast, but also kinda scary for our oceans. Trawling’s banned now, but it might take ages for these fish to bounce back. Proof that what we do really does change the planet! #Science #overfishing #evolution31Share
Jessica Hodge+FollowHawai'i’s Reefs Are in Serious TroubleDid you know overfishing in Hawai'i is causing a wild sea urchin takeover? With too few carnivorous and herbivorous fish left, urchins are munching away at coral reefs faster than they can recover. Researchers say if nothing changes, these reefs could erode beyond saving—bad news for marine life and even the islands themselves! Time for some serious fish management before it’s too late. Would you support paying people to hunt invasive species? #HawaiiReefs #Overfishing #MarineLife #Science110Share
