Comment on How the world’s oceans could be running out of fish

Comments

Almost all the fish I buy is farm-raised. I trust it more than wild-caught for some reason; I don't want to be eating anything caught off the coast of Fukushima for example.

The Monterey Bay Aquarium has an excellent guide to sustainable fish, web searchable, printable and as Android and iOS apps. They also distinguish between farmed, wild caught and if appropriate method of catch:

Just because fish is farmed doesn't make it healthy. A high density pen will have high concentrations of everything.
