Description: Aquaculture has surged by 4.4% since 2020, says the FAO. Humans now farm 185.4 million tonnes of seafood every year as well as 37.8 million tonnes of algae, worth a collective $472 billion, a new record. The aquaculture boom doesn’t mean wild fish populations are safe, though. More wild fish stocks are overexploited than ever before.
