Low Impact Fishermen in Spain

Greenpeace has gone fishing and cooking with low impact fishermen to listen to their stories about how overfishing is affecting their lives and work. Global fish stocks are in a deep crisis due to overfishing by large destructive fishing vessels, and the only real solution to the problem is to let low impact fishermen do the fishing instead of large destructive vessels.
