The greatest damage to fish stocks has happened in the last fifty years. During this time, large, organized fishing fleets have become weapons of mass marine destruction. These "giant factory ships" use GPS and sonar to locate large schools of their target fish. These trawlers are equipped with massive nets and long, hooked fishing lines that can catch huge volumes of fish at once. With processing plants right on board, these ships package and freeze tons of fish in one operation. The biggest, fastest, and most technologically advanced fishing trawlers wreak havoc as they float along the ocean’s surface.

Author is one who is the creator of a literary work such as a book, article, poetry, drama, or other type of literary work that is meant to be published. Typically, a distinction is drawn between an author and those people who combine, arrange, or manage literary materials (such as a compiler, editor, or translator). However, sometimes a person who gathers information (for publishing) in a way that the final product can be viewed as a somewhat original work is granted the title of author. The Latin word auctor, which means "authorizer, responsible actor, originator, or maker," is the root of the word.
