金枪鱼越捞越少?
If you're in the mood for a tuna poke bowl or an old-school tuna niçoise salad, here's a tip: Don't hit up the Greenhouse Tavern in Cleveland.
如果你想要一碗金枪鱼罐头或者一份老式的金枪鱼熏肉沙拉,这里有个建议:不要光顾克利夫兰的温室酒馆.
六年前,厨师乔纳森·索耶在蒙特雷湾水族馆参加了一场志同道合的厨师会议后,成为了一名“金枪鱼福音传道者”。
It was there that he made the decision to forgo tuna — both in his personal life and on the menus at all four of his restaurants.
正是在那里,他决定放弃金枪鱼——无论是在他的个人生活中,还是在他所有四家餐厅的菜单上。
It wasn't always easy.
这件事做起来并不简单。
Turning down the chance to eat famed chef Eric Ripert's mouthwatering thin-sliced tuna over a foie gras torchon took some Superman-like strength, but for Sawyer, the mission is an important one.
拒绝著名厨师埃里克·里佩尔令人垂涎欲滴的金枪鱼薄片,而转而用鹅肝酱代替,这需要超人般的力量,但对索耶来说,这是一项重要的任务。
He's not trying to get people to give up tuna altogether.
他其实也并非想让人们彻底放弃金枪鱼。
Rather, he's trying to raise awareness of the sheer quantities that are coming across our collective plates and serve as a gentle warning that all that fish is coming from a limited resource.
相反,他试图提高人们对我们所有人盘子里鱼的绝对数量的认识,并做出一个温和的警告:所有的鱼都来自有限的资源。
It turns out that his effort is hitting a seafood sustainability bull's-eye.
事实证明,他的努力正属于海鲜可持续发展的范畴。
A new study, published in Fisheries Research, reveals that the sheer amount of tuna being taken from our seas, including some species considered "vulnerable," has increased by an astonishing 1,000% in the last 60 years — a rate that some scientists are saying is unsustainable.
发表在《渔业研究》杂志上的一项新研究显示,在过去60年里,从我们的海域捕捞的金枪鱼数量,包括一些被认为“脆弱”的物种,增长了惊人的1000%——一些科学家认为这个速度是不可持续的。
The study, which looked only at larger industrial catches, says we're pulling nearly 6 million metric tons of tuna from the oceans each year.
这项研究只研究了较大的工业捕鱼量,结果表明,我们每年从海洋中捕捞了近600万吨金枪鱼。
"The big surprise for me was how much [southern] bluefin tuna had declined," says lead author Angie Coulter, who conducted the research while working with the Sea Around Us initiative at the University of British Columbia's Institute for the Oceans and Fisheries.
“对我来说,最惊人的是南方蓝鳍金枪鱼的数量下降了这么多,”该研究的主要作者安吉·库尔特说,他与不列颠哥伦比亚大学海洋与渔业研究所的“我们周围的海洋”项目合作。
The historical decrease in southern bluefin tuna populations is eye-popping.
南部蓝鳍金枪鱼数量在历史上的减少令人震惊。
In the 1960s, southern bluefin tuna from the Indian Ocean accounted for 36% of tuna catches there.
在20世纪60年代,来自印度洋的南部蓝鳍金枪鱼占了那里金枪鱼捕获量的36%。
Today, it has fallen to less than 1% of the catch.
如今,已经下降到之战总渔获量的不到1%。
