I think a tabu on fish-eating is more called for. To stop eating fish (both to boycott and protest industrial fishing) and to stop eating chicken, beef, pig, etc. (for different reasons but ones just as problematic as the ecosystem runaway on the high seas you mention) makes your action a clear sign which both reminds you of the problem, so systematically and methodically hidden from sight in our consumption -- both economic and gustatory -- of these foods, and also invites others to think about it. Veganism is looking pretty appetizing these days.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
