Fish or no fish

Alarm over our fishes. Again. This image from the EU group 'fish for the future' shows the European fish population. Only 3 (!) species -mackerel, herring and saithe- are caught in a sustainable way. Meaning not too young, enough left for a healthy population, and their environment not harmed. Subsidies keep the fishing industries alive, especially in Spain. What does that mean for the future? Fish is no endless economic source; and in this way the fish population will exhaust. Subsidies will eventually finance the depletion of our seas and oceans. How cynical is that..... So a few years ago I made the choice not to eat fish at all. We HAVE to do it in a different way. Think before you eat. And be creative; there's so much left to eat besides fish and meat!
