Impact of ‘ghost’ fishing gears on ocean wildlife
Every year, a large number of marine creatures are killed as a result of ingesting plastic. A major cause of this is due to lost or discarded plastic fishing gear in the ocean. Known as ‘ghost gear’, these include fishing nets, pots, traps, fishing lines, hooks and ropes. These objects can trap large marine wildlife, causing them slow, painful deaths.

Soo sad
Is this the true meaning of developed and modernised wrld😖
This is a huge problem, I think the UN should have legislation or a bipartisan agreement of some sort to minimize the impacts of commercial fishing! Fishing companies should have outside regulatory standards they should have to meet with one example being fishing gear should be weighed before they start the work day and weighed when they come back to dock, any fishing vessels that dump gear into the ocean would be issued a citation and fined, After 4 or so citations they should loose their commercial fishing license and possibly face a lengthy prison sentence!
The gear that's dumped is having a negative impact on ocean life as well as the rest of the world population.
They should use gps transmitter on these gears with RFID IDENTIFICATION numbers
