see food a healthy part of our American
diet fish is a very simple wonderful
source of protein oh my god mm-hmm
there are floating slaughterhouses
traveling through the oceans all over
the world the slaughterhouses poor
marine life out to the Seas then
suffocate them and cut them open to sell
for food is estimated the trillions of
Fisher killed in processed by the
fishing industry every year but the
industry doesn't just harm fish these
boats are also floating prisons most
people don't realize when the majority
of fish sold all around Europe America
and Asia come from fleets with the work
as a tricked and sold slaves every year
because of the demand for fish products
the Thai fishing fleets are short of
tens of thousands of workers so human
trafficking gangs have steps into the
gap luring men out of their villages and
areas like Cambodia Bangladesh and Burma
with false promises of well-paying jobs
in Thailand
instead they sell their men to captain's
for a few hundred dollars and the
captives are forced to work at sea if
they try to escape they're killed most
of these slaves never return to their
families the fish they take out of the
oceans are sent over to supermarkets and
fish mongers all over the world and they
know this is happening but hide it from
their customers because they know that
if we really knew how much human and
non-human animal suffering was involved
we wouldn't buy it
and these industries are destroying our
oceans the fishing industry uses
advanced sonar that can detect even the
tiniest fish within 50 miles it is
estimated that by 2048 the oceans will
be fishless and the oceans are so vital
for all life on Earth if the oceans die
then we die and the incessant sonar can
be detected by marine life like Wells
and other stations which has been
strongly linked to Picchu the loud and
rapid pressure changes made by the sonar
can cause hemorrhaging and decompression
sickness the loud vibrations can cause
extreme fear and distress whales and
dolphins might actually be beaching
themselves as a form of suicide to
escape the sonar and just as other
animals are affected by the sonar it is
not just the fish we eat that are killed
tons of other animals are caught in the
trolling nets as bycatch many of which
are critically endangered there is no
such thing as sustainable fishing
roughly 90% of the Earth's stock are
overfished and production is estimated
to increase 17 percent by 2025 every
fish we take from the ocean creates more
irreversible damage to the ecosystem
even if fish was the healthiest food on
earth it would not be worth destroying
the ocean for
but fish is not healthy fish is low in
antioxidants and phytonutrients and
contains cholesterol which is associated
with heart disease it is also high in
methionine an amino acid that appears to
aid in cancer tumor growth fish may be
the leading source of industrial
pollutants such as mercury dioxins and
even prescription drugs that end up in
the rivers and streams and eating
organic fish has not been shown to
significantly lower industrial
pollutants explosion analysis of fish
oil capsules has revealed toxic
contaminants which may counteract the
benefits of the omega-3 fatty acids
advice to eat oily fish will take fish
oil capsules to lower risk of heart
disease strokes or mortality is no
longer supported by the balance of
available evidence fish consumption has
been linked to a wide range of
conditions including ALS type-2 diabetes
kidney stones actual fibrillation and
symptoms of depression anxiety and
stress it's been believed the fish
contained vital nutrients essential for
proper nutrition but they contain
nothing that can't easily be supplied by
ponds nutrients like protein and iron
are abundant in whole plant foods like
grains nuts beans and vegetables an
Omega 3 and 6 can easily be found in
foods like flax seeds chia seeds or
walnuts
by eating fish we support human
trafficking slavery in the murder of
trillions of animals for no other reason
than for taste for more information on
