Overfishing the Blue Fin Tuna in Japan
This document discusses Japanese culture and water. It focuses on overfishing of Pacific bluefin tuna. The document notes that the bluefin tuna population has dropped 96% and Japan consumes 90% of the world's bluefin tuna. Overfishing is a major problem because if bluefin tuna are destroyed, it could damage the food chain and ecosystem. The high demand for bluefin tuna in Japan has led to an auction where a single bluefin tuna sold for $1.5 million in 2013.
