The pair restarted their work in Massachusetts with about 400 brook trout reared for up to eight months in tanks. The scientists kept some of the fish in waters set at 59 degrees Fahrenheit while others at 68 degrees Fahrenheit. All were fed the same diet.
By the end of the experiment, the difference was stark. The trout raised in warmer waters were on average less than half the size as the other fish.
Okay, so we’re getting mad at Norway for legally buying fish from these countries but not at China for literally illegally entering and fishing in poorer nations coastal waters?
Also, what would happen if Norwegian Companies refused to buy african Products or the Norwegian Government put an Embargo on African Fish? wouldn’t that be seen as racist or protectionist, as harming the African Economies?
I posted that article as an example to illustrate my point not an overview of the entire topic. It’s well researched and quantifies the number of people adversely affected.
I chose it because fewer people know about what Western countries are doing to the sea, than know about China. But since you asked, here’s a good article about some of China’s predatory fishing practices around poor nations that I posted a few weeks ago.
By whom? I’d love it if the West stopped taking fish from the mouths of poor nations, and so would the millions of people adversely affected by it.
The so called “free market” ideology that if you can legally pay elites for something, you’re entitled to take it, has deepened and intrenched global inequality. It has also created grotesque distortions such as food exports from countries in famine.
By all the African Nations we would effectively sanction
Also i have to point out the near-colonial mindset of “we know better than you what your country needs, so we’re embargoing you to protect your nature”
If anything, the local Government should impose an Export-limitation or even an Export-ban
@Neon yeah I think you need to actually read the article before you @ me about this stuff. You’re constructing a massive straw man involving embargos and local companies that has nothing to do with the real situation.
