I probably don't understand your point (sorry english is not my first or second language).
At this moment we're seriously overfishing our oceans and killing it's population, that's what i have beef with (pun intended).
So your argument is - let's continue fishing?
> any more than the vast land-use impact of agriculture can be used as argument for abandoning agriculture
I'm arguing for changing agriculture (or better land management practices), not its abandonment.
- vintermann 4y agoI know you are! But if better land management practices is good enough on land, why can't better fisheries management be good enough at sea?
- myshpa 4y agoThere are many issues, wikipedia seems ok, no time to summarize it, sorry. [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fish_farming#Issues https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fish_farming#Issues]
- vintermann 4y agoI didn't ask about what was wrong with fish farming. I said: you don't want to cut out ALL agriculture, even though a big part of present agriculture may be unsustainable. So why do you want to cut out ALL fishing and fish farming? I know the answer is that you're a vegan, but that doesn't cut it if you want to convince those who care about sustainability.
