'Losing Nemo' - film screening, food tasting & talk by The Black Fish
Event Information
Description
Join us for a film screening, talk and food tasting evening.
The Black Fish is an international marine conservation movement on a mission to end the industrial overfishing of our oceans.
Loss of ocean biodiversity is accelerating, with 29 percent of seafood species humans consume already crashed. If overfishing continues, in 35 years there will be little or no seafood available as fish populations and eco-systems are under increased threat.
We will be screening the film, 'Losing Nemo' and having a talk. Ziggy will be offering a tasting table of delicious, fish-free alternatives for you to try!
Entry by donation to Black Fish: suggested £4
It is estimated that 38.5 million tonnes of sea life that is caught annually, also known as 'bycatch', is discarded as waste, representing approximately 40 percent of the estimated global annual catch.
The amount of large predatory fish in the world's ocean is today only about 10% of what the population levels were before large scale industrial fishing techniques were introduced in the 1950s.
