We are still awaiting a response @MairiMcAllan to our open letter last November, calling for a moratorium on further fish farm development around Scotland.

#saveourseas #enoughisenough #nomorefishfarms

[Save Papay @SavePapay]

An opinion poll, conducted anonymously after an open public meeting on the island, found that most who participated would welcome a local plebiscite on the matter, and that the majority want @MairiMcAllan to call the East Moclett decision in for further examination.

Papay Sound already hosts six fish farms. The proposed 7th fish farm at East Moclett is said to be the UKs largest.

Former Head Chef at @rivercottage , Tim Maddams:
“I haven’t cooked with salmon, farmed or otherwise for a very long time. Salmon aquaculture is very environmentally iffy for lots of reasons, not least wild feed fish extraction, disease & parasite issues. https://t.co/tbCK4ZPaE5

"Exposed, offshore salmon farms may complicate fish-health challenges"

You can put salmon farms wherever you like, it's still an animal welfare nightmare.

. @rspcaassured farms, certified as “high welfare”, report cleaner fish mortality rates of up to 100%.

Caged with salmon in attempts to reduce sea lice levels, the few that survive are typically culled at the end of the production.

95℅ of farm raised salmon are deaf.

Farmed salmon have their growth artificially accelerated and that causes a permanent deformity that leads to deafness. #facts

[WildFish @WildFishCons]

Enlightened minds prevail in the Falklands. Contrast their decision with the Scottish Government's obsession with expanding salmon farming, thus compounding the serious environmental damage already inflicted by the industry.

Farmed salmon are one of the most toxic food sources on the planet while salmon farms are the worst polluters of our coastal waters.
If eco activists want a tangible target salmon farms are Great place to start #salmon #pollution

[Save Papay @SavePapay]

@SAMSoceannews Report stated that 200,000 tonnes of salmon will likely emit organic waste material equivalent to that of half the population of Scotland.
That means the 💩 of 2.65 MILLION PEOPLE is going into Scottish seas every day.
