The ocean is resilient. We do catastrophize, and some have said that the shrimp we eat is riddled with toxins.
I have lived long enough to see lawsuits against the tobacco industry, McDonald’s (for coffee that is too hot) but I have never witnessed a lawsuit against a seafood chain for killing a loved one.
In fact, living on the east coast, I have seen a glut. Lobster fisherman often sell out of the back of a pick-up truck to tourists because they get more than market price!
By-catch is a problem, and in my opinion fisherman should be required to work with local markets to sell ALL of the catch…..Dogfish, Skate and even the Invasive lionfish are all good! Try them.
Aquaculture will always have a place. But with proper management, the situations is not as dire as we are led to believe….It’s not all or nothing.
