The #salmon #farming #crisis isn’t going away in Scotland. In fact, it’s getting much worse ☠️ lice increasing ☠️ disease increasing ☠️ mortalities increasing ☠️ wild fish numbers decreasing Speak to your local MSP. It’s gone too far.

This and more fish farm junk has been littering the beach of Ardmore on Skye for months. It’s been reported and nothing is being done about it. And yet @scotgov want more salmon farms? @_KateForbes @HighlandCouncil @HIEScotland @ScotlandSalmon @SP_RuralAffairs @ScottishEPA

You know how the Norwegians apparently do fish farming better than anyone else? Non-native “Rainbow Trout Escape Reported in Vestland”. “According to the Directorate of Fisheries, the company discovered significant damage to a net pen”:

Another land-based salmon farming venture collapses. What a racket this land-based industry is. It’s like a gold rush without the gold.

Myth of “The Egg” salmon farm, cracked. It was never going to work, it conned investors, it made some people rich, some people broke - and now nobody wants it. 63 jobs down the tubes.
