      Common misconception. It’s simple supply and demand. Do you think people would be destroying the seas if nobody would pay them for it?

        supply and demand is a theory about price discovery. it has no bearing on this discussion.

            I don’t think that’s likely to happen. do you have another method that might be effective?

          You’re claiming my choice has no impact, but it does because of supply and demand. It’s very small, but it’s still there.

            this is just handwaiving. supply and demand isn’t a magic phrase that makes your actions have the desired effect.

              That’s why I’m sharing the solution:

              Don’t contribute to the problem.

              If we don’t eat fish there would be close to no nets in the oceans.

                  Yeah because there’s too many people who are too stubborn to give it up.
