Farming the seas

Habitat Media (Added Author). Bullfrog Films, inc. (Added Author).

Summary: Examines the environmental, socio-economic, health and food safety issues in the aquaculture industry around the world. Fisheries experts, environmental groups and several communities debate about the consequences and overall impact of fish farming. Market demand for seafood far exceeds the ocean's ability to keep pace, and the crisis is deepening. This program gathers perspectives from around the globe as it examines the problems and promises of this emerging industry. Stories are documented from indigenous tribes and fish farming experts of British Columbia, large-scale multinational fish farming industries, Mediterranean fishermen, and shrimp farmers in the Southeast Asia region.
