Don't eat farm raised fish

[HAIDER]

I always avoid farm raised fish ... few lines from someone .

I'm from Hardanger in Norway. The river in my hometown used to be one of the best salmon rivers in the country and it has been completely destroyed by fish farms. The vast majority of salmon are now escaped farm fish full of parasites. A few years ago me and my father spotted a fish in the river that was almost completely white from fish lice and totally blind, he walked into the river with a spear and stabbed it, it was too frail to resist and didn't even seem aware that anyone was near. For years we have petitioned and protested to no avail, the farm companies act like they own the fjords. Please don't buy farmed salmon, when you do you're helping to destroy a fjord that is a UNESCO world heritage site.

Farm fish are relatively safer because of high percentage of lead, chromium and other heavy metals in rivers and lakes due to industrial waste being routed there.
I dont understand how fish farming is a threat to river fish.

Iran ranked among the top five in fish farming world rankings

The head of Iran's fisheries organization, Hassan Salehi, has praised Iran's growing fish farming industry, saying with ten percent growth last year, Iran now produces 1.15 million tonnes of fish per year, placing the country among the top five fish farming nations of the world.

Pakistan should also learn from Iran's experience.
