• Why is it important that we strengthen our knowledge regarding fish?
• What is being done at a global level to protect fish and the fishing industry?
• In your local community how much is fish consumed? When compared to the rest of the world do you think people living in your local area eat more, less, or about the same amount of fish as others around the globe? What impacts fish consumption in your area?
