Fish farming - a false economy
Salmon farming is a drop in the ocean of Scotland’s economy, 0.2 per cent according to the Scottish government, yet its impact is disproportionately devastating. This is not a sustainable homegrown industry, it is Scottish taxpayers subsidising foreign-owned corporations whose loyalty lies not with Scotland but their bottom line.

> Solar panels can be great for farms
When I traveled down the Pacific coast of China by train, I saw a lot of solar panels mounted over big ponds, which I assume were fish farms.
Another disgusting report of the Scottish Salmon industry.
Mortality rates of >50% in 10 fish farms. Why are the fish farms allowed to get away with these kinds of losses? The commentary proposes that the losses are actually higher.
They should be shut down.

The Healthy Bays Network, an environmental group, says a federal government decision made last week should be implemented in Nova Scotia, where the regulations surrounding aquaculture are enforced by the provincial government. Paul Palmeter has the story

Today I was banned from #Facebook because I shared a screenshot of a letter in a local newspaper.
https://www.pressandjournal.co.uk/fp/opinion/letters/5382163/readers-letter-salmon-farming-oil-profits-war-ukraine/
The article criticised #fishfarming prominent position in the media. I believe that #trollfarm were used to make this picture flagged as #fakenews . Similar things happened when I shared another screenshot from Canada #fishfarms. This morning I was lazy and shared the image instead of searching for the link. I am surprised how the blue F silences activism. Is that legal?

@RussCheshire Absolutely agree! #RSPCA #greenwash of #toxic #salmon #aquaculture #farms is a shameful stain on their reputation and credibility.
As someone who (for my sins!) used to be part of the #FishFarming #industry in #Scotland I believe that nothing about the current #corporate #multinational business model is #sustainable, or #fish #welfare friendly.
#RSPCA_assured badge is a complete con of consumers.
I doubt very much if #SSPCA would stoop so low for #filthyLucre from filthy fish
