Question

In 2001, records showed that local stocks of fish were down worldwide. Yet, records of harvests indicated that fish were being taken at record rates. What was actually happening

Answer 1

Answer: China was making up figures

Step-by-step explanation:

This question is based on the documentary film, ''The End of the Line'' which was done on the effects of fishing worldwide. In 2001, records showed that local stocks of fish were down around the world yet worldwide figures were increasing at a record rate.

The United Nations hired someone to investigate this and what he found was that Communist China was inflating the amount of fish they were harvesting so that they could look more efficient.
