Polluted Fish In Our Diet

As our world shrinks in its capacity to continue absorbing man's indiscretions, the oceans are the ultimate repository of the toxins that result from the exploding exploitation of the worlds resources. Salt water fish are the unwilling victims of this excess. Fresh water fish are not far behind as chemical plants and factories dump their effluent into our waterways. Yes, we do, belatedly, have standards in some countries.

The large Eastern countries are considerably behind in this kind of consideration, so the pollution continues, relatively unabated as the nations struggle to increase their economy at the expense of ecology. It is estimated that 60% of the people in developing countries depend upon fish to supply a third of the protein in their diets. This problem bodes ill for the prospects of continuing to have fish as a staple in our diet.

The only safe resolution to the problem is 'fish farming'. Fish farms are inland facilities that have carefully controlled environments. Catfish on the market are almost entirely produced on fish farms.
