Blue Planet II is a  Must-see for Everyone on Planet Earth I just finished watching the BBC’s Blue Planet II series and I want everyone alive to watch it!  If you know nothing of the over 2/3rds of our planet that is blue, then watching this complete series will reward you with obtaining the highest degree of appreciation possible for our wondrous oceans. Hopefully, the type of appreciation that Blue Planet II will elicit from you will be very similar to the “spirituality of nature” notion of appreciation that Native Americans and other cultures throughout history have had as the ..read more

The Escape of Farm Raised Atlantic Salmon in Puget Sound Prompts Ignorant and Shortsighted Criticisms of Aquaculture The unfortunate mismanagement of an aquaculture facility on the waters of Puget Sound in the state of Washington that allowed thousands of Atlantic salmon to escape prompted some in the public to claim that aquaculture is a danger to our natural environment and its wildlife and that farmed seafood is unfit to eat. If these ignorant people would back up their criticisms by not ever eating beef, poultry, pork, and refrain from ice cream, then I could lend them just a teeny bit of ..read more

In 2017, Let’s Boldly Proclaim the Essential Importance of Farm Raised Seafood for Now and for Our Future Recently in the media, the seafood category of farm raised Chinese shrimp has been dragged through the mudhole of modern day sensationalism and it has effectively painted, with a broad brush, the entire farm raised seafood industry as something to avoid and be repulsed by. This type of attention getting media that focuses upon the unacceptable farming and selling practices of a very few bad apples unfortunately tends to spoil the entirety of our rapidly improving aquaculture industry that ..read more

It’s Time to Reform the Hawaiian Longline Fishing Sector’s Use of Undocumented Workers Seven to eight hundred undocumented foreign workers are currently used by the Hawaiian longline fishing fleet that catches primarily tuna and swordfish and these workers lack basic fair labor protections due to a federal loophole that was engineered by past Hawaiian congressmen.   It is now time to quickly reform this practice because the workers’ pay is typically much less than federal minimum wage, they cannot set foot on U.S. soil, and they are at very high risk of suffering all the abuses that ..read more
