I’ve heard a lot about aquaculture posing risks to the environment. Can aquaculture be risk free?
Like other industries, aquaculture is not completely free of effects on the environment – that is why it is subject to regulatory review and effectiveness and compliance monitoring to constantly improve assessment and management practices. Consider just a few of the industries humans rely on everyday: we travel on airplanes, drive cars, manufacture goods, extract and burn natural resources, cut down trees, rely on hydroelectric power, and engage in recreational activities like golf, downhill skiing and gardening. All of these activities affect land, air and water or a combination of all three. Not one of these activities is entirely free of effects on the environment, yet we have come to accept them as part of the natural course of our lives either out of necessity, convenience or pleasure. Regulatory controls, monitoring and compliance protocols, and penalties exist to ensure these industries remain compliant with environmental standards. However, these measures did not appear overnig
