Next time, the restaurant will order less fish from suppliers, and suppliers will buy less fish from vessels, and vessels will fish for less, because demand is low.
But I think that's a load of BS, by not consuming, the 1st and most apparent change is going to be price. Price will come down to drive the demand back up, and until the price is lower than what it takes to catch the fish, will overfishing stop.
3. In the end who cares, just say "if I order organic salad, can I PIITB?"

fish is being overfished.

when I used to go tuna fishing, I used to catch like 3-4 everytime I'd go out. and I'd catch like a shark or something else in the process
Now if I catch 1 a summer I'm happy.

It does suck, but I'll still eat fish and won;t judge anyone who choses to

I'm glad everyone seems to be on the same page - I figured I was just being an a-hole again since I was pissed she would call me out on this, but it looks like I'm not the only one.

These two comments both really made me LOL @ work - I had to show a couple coworkers what was so damn funny & they loved it too.
