Salmon is perhaps the most popular type of fish raised in sea farms, but did you know that current farming practices pose several problems for the environment and public health? In fact:
* The waste from millions of captive fish pollutes the ocean water with untreated sewage, toxic chemicals, and other wastes.
* Millions of salmon escape from their pens each year, interbreeding with, and often out-competing wild salmon.
* Carnivorous farmed salmon require wild-caught fish for food, thus competing directly with humans and fish species for this valuable yet diminishing resource.
* Added colorants, toxic by-products, antibiotics and other drugs, and cancer-causing contaminants are present to various degrees in farmed salmon tissue, often at levels that can adversely affect human health.
