- Reposted by Foodrise EULand-based salmon farming is an environmental and ethical disaster: ⚠️ Drains the ocean of wild fish, stolen from coastal communities for salmon feed ⚠️ Devours water and energy ⚠️ Risky tech with frequent failures, pollution, mass die-offs ⚠️ Causes suffering on an industrial scale (3/5)
- Reposted by Foodrise EUWhat is land-based salmon? It’s industrial fish farming in tanks. Salmon – born to swim through rivers and seas – are now crammed into sterile tanks under artificial lights inside factories. From wild rivers to prison tanks. It’s absurd and cruel. (2/5)

- Today marks the start of the European Biomethane Week, where producers, users, investors, and legislators aim to further boost the ongoing upscaling of biomethane. While this alternative gas is widely framed as sustainable, our StopTheBiomethaneRush Coalition has a few things to say:
- ❌ Brussels wants to ban everyday words like “burger” and “sausage” from plant-based foods. 🤔 But who is actually confused by a “vegan burger”? Sign & share the petition: noconfusion.org/petition #NoConfusion #YesVeggieBurger
- 🗣️We have been saying it for a while: a filled plate with farmed fish here means an empty plate for a local fisher in Senegal. This article by @ftm.nl shows how farmed seabass in Dutch supermarkets takes food and income away from fishing communities in Senegal: www.ftm.nl/artikelen/kw...
