Unscramble the Blue Letters
Well, that's only half the srtoy. The other half of the story is this ilncridbee boom in fish farming and alutqracuue, which is now, only in the last year or two, starting to exceed the amount of wild fish that we produce. So that if you add wild fish and farmed fish together, you get the equaevilnt of two Chinas created from the ocean each and every year. And again, it's not a coincidence that I use China as the example, because chnia, in addition to being the biggest catcher of fish, is also the biggest farmer of fish.

Original Text
Well, that's only half the story. The other half of the story is this incredible boom in fish farming and aquaculture, which is now, only in the last year or two, starting to exceed the amount of wild fish that we produce. So that if you add wild fish and farmed fish together, you get the equivalent of two Chinas created from the ocean each and every year. And again, it's not a coincidence that I use China as the example, because China, in addition to being the biggest catcher of fish, is also the biggest farmer of fish.
