They also destroy the local ecosystems where the farms are positioned. The excessive consumption we’re accustomed to is the problem. But good luck stopping that because line must go up exponentially.

They’re fed many things, mostly soy pellets, but you’re correct they do need some protein supplements.

That’s like saying solar panels require plastics from oil therefore they’re pointless, we just need to improve the process to minimize wild catch inputs.

I’m sorry this argument is utterly stupid, by this logic we shouldn’t grow vegetables either.

This is the kind of quick talking points some PR intern throws together overnight for cheap because his boss needs to pitch against some bill or more likely try to keep the wild quotas high by arguing that their harvest is the actually sustainable model. You need to learn how to read these K-street pitches, or they’ll spin you to believing up is down and good is evil.

I think we’re past the point where we can do wild catch for most stocks until they’ve had a decade to recover.
