Or we could get DHA and astaxanthin from algae, just like the fish do. Algae can be efficiently grown in closed, pollution free environments. The protein profiles of DHA and astaxanthin producing algaes are excellent too.

Yup I agree yuck

Well, it’s depending on what people are feeling those fish. Look what happened to people around the world when they eating too much American fast food.

WE WASTE too much of the good food AVAILABLE + the envies and vanities between countries WITHIN EU promotes bad economic practices and hate driven market speculations. WE ARE NOT prepaired TO PROTECT any environment cause WE HAVE issues with ourselves! Germany included

Well, it depends on HOW intensive and how responsible is done! If we take the Greece example that struggles under the low prices for the fish... aquaculture can be A DISASTER for the environment

As a recreational fisherman, I really wish there was more vegan seafood as it’s pretty good ngl.

The answer is NOT aquaculture

[@MrViewer1980]

you are sick. natives farmed this land in ways that both produced enough biomass to consume and made the land more productive. They did this for thousands of years

[@beniaminorocchi]

What do you mean by natives, what country? Just curious, but I'm pretty sure it wouldn't be productive enough to be sustainable in today's market

[@MrViewer1980]

@@beniaminorocchiThe old ways were world wide like forgotten cities and trade routes. Even in Europe, before the Romans. It does not require today's markets. The few protecting privitazation should find ways to actually be productive for the future.

[@beniaminorocchi]

@@MrViewer1980 I thought you were talking about pisciculture (multiple civilization did employ that in some measure-for example romans). If you're talking plain traditional farming, there's not enough land in the world to feed half the current world population, and that's a fact. And you're wrong in implying they were more sustainable per se, the fertile crescent has become a desert because their use of extensive irrigation raised salinity, a problem they were well aware of and tried to stop with no success

[@MrViewer1980]

@@beniaminorocchi no think back to before what you're referring to as traditional farming which in and of itself actually has a much higher carrying capacity than chemical/pharmaceutical based modern farming despite what corporations have paid biostitutes to report.

[@beniaminorocchi]

@@MrViewer1980 Source or it didn't happen PS population density was much lower than today's anyway, and most crops had a much lower yeld anyway, we selected them for millennia to have bigger fruits/seeds/whatever you use of them

Cut eating fish out altogether (the problem of stuffing them with antibiotics, growth hormones etc., is so ubiquitous) you're much better off getting your healthy fats from organic walnuts🤞🏻
