"The End of the Line" - How Sound is the Science Advanced? (Room M304, Mathematics Building, University of Cape Town, from 2010-11-02 17:00 to 2010-11-02 18:30)
The film "The End of the Line" currently on release in Cape Town provides a chilling perspective of the state of the world's fisheries: bluefin tuna overfished to the brink of extinction, large fish species reduced by 90%, no fish left by 2048 if current trends continue. But is this picture up to date and scientifically accurate? Is the solution offered of more Marine Protected Areas sufficient or appropriate? Do South African fisheries fit this mould? The session aims to discuss these and related issues, allowing for an extended period of questions and input from the audience after initial presentations.
