Don't Eat Farmed Salmon!
Canada's 80 farms produce a raw sewage equivalent to a city of 500,000 people......for every pound of farmed salmon, four pounds of wild fish are need for food pellets....sea lice, algae blooms and other parasites threaten all kinds of wildlife.....compared to wild fish, there are far more toxins, antibiotics and chemicals in farmed fish. PBDE's (flame retardants) were found in quantities 10 to 65 as much as wild fish.
Plus, for some moronic reason, Canada is raising atlantic salmon on the west coast and 30,000 of them just escaped. WTF?!
