Geography is the study of places and the relationships between people and their environments. Geographers explore both the physical properties of Earth’s surface and the human societies spread across it. They also examine how human culture interacts with the natural environment and the way that locations and places can have an impact on people. Geography seeks to understand where things are found, why they are there, and how they develop and change over time. Read more...

Overfishing harms quite literally noone but humans.
i'm pretty certain it harms the fish being fished.
And the fish that eat those fish, and the sharks that eat those bigger fish, and the algae and plankton bloom that are kept in check by those fish, and the coral that are dependent upon a balanced eco-system, and the land animals that depend on the oxygen and precipitation produced by a healthy ocean... It just keeps on going.
