The more we have of something the lower the price. The less
we have of something the more the price. This is the basics of economics and
the effects on our society. Think of what would happen if In the U.S. we no
longer any shrimp on the market. This would cause a huge increase in the price because
there harder to find. Well this is happening know and in our time with our
watch on this blue marble we live in. Brown shrimp are dying off in groves and
generations of brown shrimp can no longer reproduce. Why? The answer is Dead
Zones.
As you can see in the chart below that over time dead zones
effect murrain life and as a result affect us humans. We need to be more aware
of our environments and how our contributions affect the climate. The shrimp
population is diminishing do to the gulfs of Mexico dead zones. Juvenile brown
shrimp are having a difficult time traversing the dead zone from their offshore
spawning grounds. This in turn creates a
mass population decrees. The chart below expresses the catch ratio of the
fishermen within the regain. Lower
shrimp catch result in higher pay per pound of shrimp affecting the bottom
dollar we spend to eat the delectable catch.
If we help reduce the
creation of dead zones it doesn’t just help the environment but it helps our
ability to have and obtain seafood at a more reasonable price without having to
deal with inflation due to limitations of quantity.
