Write a letter to the editor on overfishing
Thank you for choosing to write a letter to the editor!
The best letters to the editor are simply written, short, focus on one or two points, and capture your interest in the issue. Three important points you might use: - The fishing industry's future is uncertain and bleak if the problem of overfishing is not solved.
- The best way to solve the problem is to allow scientists to determine how many fish are caught each year, instead of the industry itself.
- With the leadership of Sen. Olympia Snowe and Rep. Tom Allen, Congress
passed a good bill to limit overfishing in 2006. Now it is up to the
National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) to write the rules to carry
that mission forward.
Most newspapers require that letters to the editor be no longer than 250 words.Submit your letter to the editor by clicking here: Portland Press Herald or Brunswick Times Record. After you've written your letter, please let us know! Use the form below.
