FWIW, China also produces enormous (enormous) quantities of seafood from caged underwater oceanic farms. It's the future of fishing IMHO.

The rich, everywhere in the world, will continue to seek wild-caught though. (While they publicly rail against the poor eating wild-caught. Such is how the wheels turn.).

Or we could just not eat fish, like I haven't done for all my 36 years of life?

That's not an option in East Asia.

Fish is a major part of the diet there. People love it. They're not going to stop eating it. Fish is also good for you, and might be part of the reason why people in East Asia have some of the longest lifespans in the world.
