WWF is corrupt? Cooperating with dirty aquaculture
Salmon Aquaculture Dialogue (SAD) meet this week in Norway Hotels in Bergen in order to
present the draft criteria for “sustainable salmon farming.” Green Warriors of Norway is
deeply shocked by the unethical WWF’s commitment to green paint the strongly
environmentally harmful farming industry, and will demonstrate against the “corrupt”
panda.
- There is no right way to do anything wrong, “said manager Kurt Oddekalv the Green
Warriors of Norway, who for years have pointed out that industrial farming of fish-eating
fish either are or could be sustainable.
It is absurd to use 2,5-5,5 kg fresh, pure wild fish to feed up 1 kg contaminated farmed
fish, when half of wild fish could have been used as human food.
Farming industry contaminated ecosystems through escapes and genetic pollution, the spread
of infection and diseases such as lice, eutrophication of the fjords and general
pollution. In some cages, over half of the fish genetic damage, and it is given a triple
vaccine that has not been examined for health of the fish.
The industry move around because the areas they are in the messy down by themselves, and
stress fields disappear as a result of pollution.
When WWF is good for this industry, WWF is working against both the environmental movement
and the environment. The reason is NOK likely that Marine Harvest spits funds: farmers pay
and WWF dances, while wild salmon are threatened.
Escaped farmed salmon are a major threat to the genetic diversity found in wild salmon
strains. Directorate for Nature has warned that escaped farmed salmon breeding with wild
salmon, is about to wipe out wild salmon strains and replace them with hybrid fish.
Studies show lower smolt production and survival in rivers with too much farmed fish.
All escapes are made that area and environmental protection department in More og Romsdal
county says no to expanded production in the farming industry. The industry is not
sustainable, says the department.
Kurt Oddekalv the Green Warriors of Norway are among the signatories of the “International
Declaration Against unsustainable Salmon Farming” that attacks the farming industry for
four conditions:
1. Ecological destruction: destabilization of the ecosystem by killing wild salmon
throughout the northern hemisphere, and releasing aggressive species, and deprive other
species and people of their primary food source.
2. Social destruction: Violations of work in Chile, is threatening valuable local
economies, degrades traditional food resources and ignores the rights of Indians and
coastal fishermen.
3. Threaten local food safety: medicines, feed and excrement from the open cages damage
sea life.
4. Threatens global food security: the North Atlantic Ocean and the South Pacific are
trålet for fish that are sent to farms, creating net reduction in the fish available to
feed people and affect the marine food chain.
