Er... how do you think the fish stocks got that way? Poor management domestically, poor legislation internationally? Or maybe there was some monster predator out there having evolved in the last 20 years?

Mining is considerably different, coal is not a sustainable resource no matter how you manage it. Nor is it's continued use, Victorian technology in the late 20th century. It had an allotted time to run when the first steam engine was lit.

And I never said culling dolphins would alleviate anything. It's an expression of anger, a last ditch strike at something, anything.
