A Wish to Never Eat Farmed Salmon Ever: The New York Times’ Mark Bittman is concerned about the future of fish. Given that worldwide consumption of seafood has doubled over the past few decades and the state of the aquaculture industry (wherein wild-caught fish are turned into meal for farmed fish), the sea is being depleted of its stock.
