Atlantic Cod going Extinct.

[swestrup]

According to a recent study, even a complete moratorium on all cod fishing won't be enough to prevent Atlantic cod from going extinct within the next 50 years if nothing is done to stop the rate of stock decline.

I didn't do it!
Since I left the parents home I went from eating cod 2-3 times a week to barely once a month or so!
It is a strange thing, cod prices are mutiplied by over 10times in the last 15 years ( i was watching a tv documentary about it on portuguese tv the other day ) but people still buy it almost as much. To th epoint where they will cut down on other essentials if financial problems arise but will still buy cod. I don't know why this is. And if you ask me what i miss much form my parents house I will answer the cod without hesitation. I do not know why that is..it is like we are blind to anything else when it comes to that... That we are fishing it to extinction just doesnt computer, I will tell you now that it sucks and we shoudl eat less of it and what not and go to a restaurant 5 minutes from now and go all OHH COD! and take 3 servings of it...
