    The Norwegian fisheries minister and her family own shares in an investment firm that owns large fish farms. She doesn't want reports issued on toxins in farm fish such as ethoxyquin (a pesticide used in producing fish pellets) from being released. No one tests for this as it is not associated with fish.

    Problem with fish farming is that all the chemicals and medicine used for faming are thrown straight into the water. This interacts with surrounding environment directly spreading polluting lakes, rivers and surrounding envidronment. Also the antibiotics are just dumpen in water also increasing resistance and freely spreading those resistant bacteria everywhere. At least with farm animals the problem is somwhow contained. Also farmed fish is most of the time many times more contamined with chemicals due to generally more loose regulations on feed and chemicals.
    If they used some lake or pond that didn't interact with other water sources, I would not be nearly as concerned. But these are just placed on public waters. Farmed fish is pretty much worst food you can eat. Even US factory farmed cow's, which are disgusting are better than farmed fish.

    Insecticide-Resistant Sea Lice Spread to Wild Fish
    A new study confirms the role of the aquaculture industry in the spread of resistant salmon lice in Norway.
    Until a few years ago, chemical delousing was the most important tool for fighting sea lice in Norwegian salmon farming operations. But after a while, most of the drugs became less effective, because changes in the genes of the sea lice made them resistant. As a result, chemical treatments no longer work as well.

    This supports the denial of renewing open-pen fish farms in my area of the Broughton Archipelago, from the facts of science and observations in Norway. My community of Sointula, BC, Canada, is in solidarity with your First People's occupations of the fish farms at Swanson Island and Midsummer Island. Our community has commerical fishermen as well as tourism based on the viability of the wild salmon runs. I've been to the first day of action at the Swanson Island Occupation and I plan to travel to support both fish farms soon. We are in this fight together to not continue supporting a greedy, unsustainable, industry that is devastating to the existence of Grizzlies, Black Bear, Orca and the people who rely on the wild salmon for either culture, food sources, sports fishing, commercial fishing, etc. Say NO to Farm Fish on the BC Coast!

    FRONTLINE PBS seems to have no idea what they are writing of.On the script is written about river Vasso in Alaska??? and program is telling about river Vosso here in Norway.
    I live about 50km from river Vosso in Bergen .In the fjord where Vosso runs to the sea is at least 13 salmon farms which means miljons of salmons and rainbow trouts.Nearly every year escapes salmon and rainbow trout from farms and sometimes with lethal disease like a couple of years ago.Tens of thousands(about 90000 if i remember right) raibow trouts,with lethal contagious disease,escaped from one farm during storm and owners of the farm had not even informed National food Administration that fish are sick. Those fish should had been destroyed as toxic waste long time before they "escaped".
    Wild seatrout is nearly extinct and without putting hunreds of thousands farmed salmon cubs to the rivers and the sea same had happened to original wild salmon in all rivers which runs to same fjord.Sea lice kill's cubs when they migrate to the sea from rivers.
    DON'T BUY OR EAT farmed norwegian salmon.IT'S TOXIC and tastes like shit compared to wild fish.Fish farming is worst enviromental offense in Norway but many very very rich farm owners are among them who decide about fish farming and only money talks.

Yes, farming fish in a Norwegian fjord may cause some local eutrophication but it is not considered a big problem due to the depth and circulation from the Atlantic sea. I agree that in some areas farming shouldn't occur. The Norwegians, however, are trying to move the farming out at sea.
      During the summer I visited the famous rock carvings in Alta and one of the several thousand year old carvings showed a person angling from a boat. Sure, technically we don't need animal meat but it's not something that will change in near future. Among the different animal meats, fish is by far the most ecological. Growing one kilo of fish only requires about one kilo of feed. In chicken this requires three kilo and in beef it is 8 kilos. Did you know also that they have started feeding fish soy proteins instead of caught fishmeal?
      I took a course called Advances in Aquaculture last spring and I can tell you that the industry is slot more regulated than you think. There is also a lot of research in fish health and how to make farming more sustainable by farming on land or using the effluents to farm oysters and macrophytes.

    But large international organizations are beginning to regulate and certify origin of farm fish and must be inspected regularly.
    It will not prevent bad local fish farms that only sell locally, but it will impact export market opportunities.

      "Fish farming is sustainable if rigorous oversight is maintained" that's just hot air futurism, it never has been, it never will be. The only way battery salmon feed lots could be sustainable is if they were contained on land. Sustainability is the new catch phrase the industry feels obliged to be seen to addressing but all they do is dupe people with on their packaging, just another lie and distortion by the industry as they chase their tails tackling one issue after another. There are problems and mile long, the whole practice is untenable, trapping that many migratory fish in extremely dense areas, a fish that would move from open water ocean narrow gravel river beds every year - of course it doesn't work! The so called cleaner fish is one of their green washes and has no effect, in fact they get as infested with lice as the salmon. The whole industry is a sham, a flabby, pink rush of greed and environmental disaster, reliant on people staying ignorant to the reality.

There has been a huge reduction in escaped salmon and the pink salmon (hump back salmon) is now a bigger problem for the wild salmon than farmed. The industri is also using less and less of the chemical sea lice treatment and basically no antibiotics. If you buy ASC certified salmon the WWF recommend eating it, and it's guaranteed without antibiotics. Most of the farmers use lump fish, which eat the sea lice, and life skirts to reduce the sea lice. The chemical used in bathing treatments like H2O2 will dissolve to H2O farely quickly and will have no impact on the people eating the fish. DDT is also banned in fish farming, and it is proven that farmed fish has less heavy metals than wild fish, since you have more control over there feed.

    Assuming that meat eaters have no valid argument for criticizing the consumption of farmed salmon/trout leaves out other more intelligent arguments. The movie reflects the lack of knowledge of toxicity in fatty tissues of farmed fish. Into account must also be taken the food consumed by the fish. Concentration of heavy metals, pesticides and other environmental toxins in the feed pellets for the farmed fish, makes especially farmed salmon a true toxic food source to be avoided. Therefore meat eaters especially have a valid argument and right to criticize farmed trout/salmon, especially because they rely on their meat not to be a health hazord!!!
    The movie/clip is in my opinion vague at best and has no bite to it!

    You're right, a farm raised pig is more pleasant to eat than wild boar, but humans have had 9000 years to figure it out. I hope there is a future for Salmon aquaculture. For now, a wild caught Northern Pacific Salmon is king, but if humans get it right, not use antibiotics, and feed the Salmon a proper diet, it could be a great future...for us anyway.

    • @red94mr28

      A feral pigs in captivity will lose their "wild" attributes (hairiness and long tusks) in two generation and a domesticated pig will acquire the same wild attributes in two generations. How long is a generation? 6 months. So the first agrarian humans learned about domesticating pigs in a year not 9000 years.

    I'm a vegetarian hunter/fisher, and hopefully one day, rancher. My wife calls us huntatarians. The only meat we eat are what we harvest ourselves. So, for now, whatever we hunt or fish for. I decided to do this before our kids were born, so they could decide whether or not to be vegetarians, huntatarians, or the run-of-the-mill omnivore. They are 9 and 5 now, and aside from fish we catch ourselves, they don't want to eat any other animal meat. If that changes, we're okay with it, but bringing them up this way let's them understand the cycle of life and death, and whether they are okay with it.
