I don't know dude.
"You can't fish anymore."
"Then what are we going to eat?"
"Well, I presume that instead of going fishing once a day you can start a farm. Watch over and feed some chickens. Whatever."
And, like I said in my other post. If you can find a way to actually save the whales and let everyone still eat, then I'll be right there with you. But right now this looks like rich people who have time to go whale watching wanting the poor people who barely have time to get enough food to eat to stop eating so that they can still go whale watching.
Give me some actual numbers that show that people who rely on fish can actually farm to make up the difference and I'll be convinced. But right now I'm on the side of caution that says "let's not do something that might starve some percentage of 3 billion people" and the article is saying "eh, 3 billion people can probably find something else to eat".
