To Jeff, who wants to believe that there are ample fish in the sea, I feel ya. However there are huge floating factories crawling the oceans and sucking fish out at an unprecedented rate. Horribly, not all that are caught and killed are used. Yes, there are fish that are ok to eat. But there is a problem, and I guarantee that if you will make an effort to find out the truth and do something to make a difference, you will feel even better.

To people who may be worried about the idea that it is difficult to fight huge and impersonal corporations, please don’t allow worry to paralyze you. As an American consumer, you have enormous power. Not buying or using products that are made (or farmed or fished) in an irresponsible way is an incredibly powerful act. Gently convincing others to follow your example increases that power. Change is happening already, and more is on the way, so there is no reason for despair!

Thanks for bringing such an issue to the public… I witness the appetite for fish when sushi restaurants are up on every corner in New York City.
