Salmon farming as it is currently practiced is not sustainable. I will not buy farmed salmon, until the industry:
- Uses technology that eliminates the risks of disease and parasite transfer to wild fish as well as escapes of farmed fish into the wild;
- Guarantees untreated waste is not released into the ocean;
- Labels fish as "farmed" so consumers can make informed choices;
- Develops feed for farmed salmon that does not deplete fish stocks around the world;
- Ensures wildlife is not harmed as a result of salmon farming;
- Prohibits the use of genetically modified fish;
- Eliminates the use of chemicals, antibiotics and pesticides in salmon farming;
- Ensures contaminants in farmed salmon don't exceed levels deemed safe by international standards; and
- Stops locating salmon farms in areas opposed by First Nations or other local communities.
