    Hour about they start by not depleting the sea with their shadow fishing fleets?

      That doesn’t make building hundreds of artificial reefs a bad thing though, even if restoring the environment has economic benefits.

        It’s greenwashing, especially since they claim everything is perfectly fine with the fishing.

          Building hundreds of artificial reefs that will probably never pay for themselves is not greenwashing.

          Setting limits too high and potentially destroying the fisheries is bad, but that’s hardly specific to China.

          At least they’re doing something positive, as opposed to nothing and continuing to overfish as we’re doing with snow crab as it’s collapsing right now.
