There is, but the duration might be longer than 10 years. We grab a bunch of what's endangered, sequence their genomes, construct plans for future repopulation, and be prepared for a future when we're more responsible with these natural resources. The fisheries will exhaust, and demand will shift elsewhere in the short term.

There is no other path to success, as attempting cooperation with those who will fish relentlessly is futile. Preserve what's left today for a future with better humans.




Organisms are so much more complex than their genome, in ways we're only now starting to understand:

> Human cells make up only 43% of the body's total cell count. The rest are microscopic colonists.

The problem there is that when the fish become extinct, the entire ecosystem is altered and may never recover.


> future with better humans

Mighty bold of you to assume we're not on the Idiocracy timeline :)
