Utterly scandalous and reckless: #IsleofSkye exposed to risk of hazardous chemicals from toxic #salmon farm in #Portree without public warning. Details only emerge following FOI request @_KateForbes @Ianblackford_MP @scottishgreens@HighlandCouncil

ScotGov acknowledges "significant evidence showing that populations of Atlantic salmon across the world are at crisis point, and that we must reinvigorate our collective efforts, both nationally and internationally"
That effort won't be a moment too soon https://t.co/hWrYaEAige
Wake up and smell the coffee!
Watch this video to discover why farming #salmon in nets at sea is a thoroughly bad idea:

Loch Creran, Argyll. The most important site in the world for serpulid reefs - our version of coral reefs. They are fast disappearing. This map shows the aquaculture developments in this fragile ecosystem. Where are the regulators when you need them?

Revealed: 30+ Million Dead Scottish Salmon Since 2017 - 8m morts reported last year & half a million in first two weeks of 2022!! https://t.co/tBz56oIRHK @ScotlandSalmon@tavishscott
Anyone for yummy "responsibly sourced" Scottish salmon? @rspcaassured@ASC_aqua@SoilAssociation
Since 2018 there's been a staggering 1,735 doses of shellfish-killing toxic chemicals (Deltamethrin, Azamethiphos & Emamectin) including 868 doses of Emamectin which scientists @ScottishEPA recommended banning in 2016 (with a two-year phase out)! https://t.co/TAE9KRYcZv
It’s rare that a single industry encapsulates the worst excesses of neocolonialism, habitat destruction, astroturfing and corrupting the public realm but salmon farming really is the worst of all possible worlds.
To understand why #salmon farming is an inherently unsustainable industry, read this @WHFP1.
Feed for these farms is depleting stocks of krill, anchovies, and sardines the world over, undermining local fisheries in Latin America and Africa.

Wild Scottish Atlantic salmon are victims of the Scottish Government's ecocidal agenda to expand salmon farming. Government data proves this.
They must be held accountable.

Outrageous intimidation of environmental campaigner by #Scottish#salmon industry, including surveillance and attempts to collect kompromat.
@tavishscott@ScotlandSalmon should hang his head in shame instead of defending this ruthless, polluting industry.
