Can we clone fish yet?

Global fishing stocks could collapse by 2048 according to a study led by a marine conservation biologist from Nova Scotia. It seems like a very superficial study - based on global fishing rates over the past 50 years - and also seems a little too evening-news-scary to be discussed on a Nature website. I am sure we need to do a better job conserving resources and protecting the oceanic environment, but it seems like there are some other important factors to consider before predicting the disappearance of sushi. Maybe I used up all my food-disappearance worrying on bananas, which are not probably not going to go extinct anytime soon. Whew.
