What do you think overfishing means? Discuss in pairs.
Thảo luận (1)Hướng dẫn giảiOverfishing is when fish are caught from the ocean at a faster rate than they can reproduce, causing a decline in their population. This can lead to a shortage of fish, affecting the food chain and the livelihoods of people who depend on fishing for their income. Overfishing can also harm the environment, as it can disrupt the balance of marine ecosystems and cause the depletion of other species that rely on the fish for food.

Đánh bắt quá mức là khi cá bị đánh bắt từ đại dương với tốc độ nhanh hơn khả năng sinh sản của chúng, gây ra sự suy giảm dân số. Điều này có thể dẫn đến tình trạng thiếu cá, ảnh hưởng đến chuỗi thức ăn và sinh kế của những người phụ thuộc vào đánh bắt cá để có thu nhập. Đánh bắt quá mức cũng có thể gây hại cho môi trường vì nó có thể phá vỡ sự cân bằng của hệ sinh thái biển và gây ra sự cạn kiệt của các loài khác sống dựa vào cá để làm thức ăn.
