These mother ships, known as 'reefers', are a gateway for laundering tuna out of the region.A report was released that estimates that on top of the known fish catch, at least another 34% is stolen by pirates in the Western and Central Pacific.Scientists have been warning for years that bigeye and yellowfin tuna are suffering from overfishing. 60% of tuna eaten globally each year comes from the Pacific heading mostly to markets in Japan, the European Union and United States.Greenpeace advocates the creation of a network of marine reserves, protecting 40 per cent of the world's oceans, as the long term solution to overfishing and the recovery of our overexploited oceans.Related Collections:Defending Our Pacific Expedition 2008 (Photo & Video)
