ORGANIC PANIC
FISH. Fish have become humanity’s last significant wild food source, but growing global demand now threatens wild fish stocks. The fish farming industry is booming, feeding this growing demand for seafood. Aquaculture advocates claim that farmed fish will soon be the only way to provide fish to the world. Critics warn that farmed fish carry disease and parasites, and could devastate ocean ecology. Can a wild catch fishery be sustainable? Can an organic fish farm be healthy and environmentally sound or is organic fish farming just a scam and a cash grab? Are there alternatives to destructive conventional fish farms? Internationally renowned skier Mark Abma tours the BC coast to find out what’s the healthiest choice for himself and for the world.
