Just me?

I will not patronize a restaurant that serves farmed salmon, I will not purchase farmed salmon, I will not by pre prepared food that includes farmed salmon and I will not eat sushi prepared with farmed salmon. I think the salmon farming industry is a blight on our coast and nothing short of a disaster waiting to happen to wild salmon stocks. And now I hear that the geniuses in control of our food supply think that salmon is a good place to start in approving genetically modified animals into our food supply. Is it just me or do I have hope that no one else will put this shit in their body and think it's a good idea?

This is your choice to make as a consumer, but the reality is that ocean pH and temperatures are rising, and fish life are dwindling, and we have a growing global population to feed. How do you propose the world feed almost 10 billion people in 2050? Here in the west coast, and in Canada, we do have the luxury of choosing our food products and what we choose to put in our bodies, but it is a very privileged stance to take, and it is not up to you to decide what is healthy and safe for other people to eat.

What we need...

With the state of bees not even a falsely healthy meat free diet is the answer. All food is in danger. It's not what we eat but how many people are eating.
