However, seeing the story in Norway, I'm wondering about Alaska too - is the whole damned supply from chemical fish farms? Well, the YT maker just happened to have a link to a salmon supply.
Anyway, to the video before going any further, we've run something similar before:
1. Securing a good supply of wild salmon without the other add-ons;
2. Determining our view of Greenpeace and similar.
On the second point, I'm really in two minds. On the one hand, multiple cases of them being horses' backsides, real New Age loonies.
On the other hand, well they're in the ferreting biz as well, are they not? It's when it goes from well compiled reports which expose the sleaze to violence with hippy-creepiness in Jesus sandals that much of humanity is lost to the cause.
And I'm thinking this is pure cabal action, designed to discredit the real science at local level. I'd appreciate your thoughts.
For eight years I worked in a Marine Research Laboratory where a PhD student was doing work on fish farming of trout. From time to time a certain number were culled and passed to the canteen to be cooked for our lunches. The staff enjoyed them, free of charge. After the third or fourth time I asked why the flesh of these trout was always white and not the usual pink colour. The answer was that natural growing trout eat certain things which colour the flesh (I forget the details). Then came the 'blow', as I was told that during the last few weeks farmed trout were starved and then fed food with a red dye in it. This promoted the 'healthy looking' pink flesh.
ReplyDeleteI presume that farmed salmon are similarly treated.
Shall run that tomorrow at OoL.
