Yup.

Anyone defending the #salmonfarm industry in this day and age and with all we know about them.. they are either carrying rocks in their skull or on the take for industry.

With this dude, it's both 👇
The impotence of paid #salmonfarm scientists is showcased here.
This Bio has screamed from the gutter for 20 yrs on behalf of this garbage industry.
How this dude thinks he's advocating for factory farms, with no waste containment, is beyond me.
The largest runs of Pacific wild salmon happen here..
Yup.

Phasing out #salmonfarms is NOT a part of his legacy. He failed to get it done in his own timeline.
The FNs fighting to keep the farms are a dozen or so wealthy chiefs who are deeply corrupt. They ignore the majority of their own members who want these factory salmon farms out of the water. #getout

I think what’s more notable is that they feel it necessary to state that their salmon variety contains NO chicken. Commercial salmon farms in Tasmania actually feed the salmon a mix that includes chicken by-products. (We’re meant to be reassured by the farms’ assertion that it’s all cooked & ground)

Here's how those strict biosecurity measures are working out @drcollette.bsky.social:
This is salmon. Beef is a far, far larger industry. JBS, the world's + Australia's largest beef processor owns Huon, one of the salmon farms.
This is nothing in comparison.
This week, Luke Martin, the chief executive of Salmon Tasmania, confirmed that salmon was being harvested for human consumption from infected pens: “Yes, absolutely, and that’s standard.”

Scotland’s salmon farming industry is out of control.
Rising deaths, polluted seas, and ignored communities.
I’m calling for a pause on all new farms + expansions.

Australia has decided that driving the Maugean skate extinct is an ok price to pay to make sure that salmon farms don’t have to deal with pesky environmental regulations.

Sad.

'To put it in the simplest terms, shit from the huge volumes of salmon grown in pens and excess feed is polluting Tasmanian waters, increasing nitrogen levels. This creates algal blooms, low oxygen and “dead zones”, disturbing the ecosystem of local waterways.'

#Greenpeace runs fairly decentralized, how they could even collect this money if the appeals don't happen..is anyone's guess.

IMO they have been an ineffectual protest group for decades now. They haven't changed tactic-wise, they're banner wavers.
We're way beyond that.

Farmed salmon endure much worse treatment than pigs, cows, chickens, etc. and we understand them much less.
We treat them like unthinking/unfeeling objects. I've heard salmon farmers call them stupid. All species of salmon are undoubtedly as intelligent as they are tough.
We do this at our own peril
