The call comes after new scientific data from the International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES) shows a worrying continued downward trend for stocks of AS herring and mackerel, two of Europe’s most iconic and economically important fish stocks. Stocks of AS herring have dropped from 6.9 million tonnes in 2008 to 3.1 million tonnes today and are now below a critical sustainability threshold – the point at which the long-term health of the stock is jeopardised. Mackerel stocks have dropped from 7.26 million tonnes in 2015 to 2.8 million tonnes today and are close to their threshold. ICES’ ...
