Holiday slowdown

I know... I know... It has been a few weeks since my last post, but the Holiday season is on us big time. I am feeling a little overwhelmed by the rush of the season. Anyway, while perusing the Web for aquaculture headlines worth sharing with you all I cam across yet another article highlighting the concerns of environmentalists about aquaculture. The short piece from a Scotland-based mag. quotes a Green party member of Scottish Parliament chastising aquafarmers over there for not doing the right things to protect the environment and wild fish populations.

It got me thinking about what governments can do to help the industry worldwide as well as regionally and locally. If you know of any government/private sector achievements or projects that work to address the industry's sustainability, please feel free to comment. I am on the hunt myself and promise to post some findings. Good luck,
