Floating Pig Farms

"These [fish] farms are terrible polluters, "floating pig farms," in the words of Daniel Pauly, professor of fisheries at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver. Their wastes and uneaten food coat the bottom of sea floors, and they spur enormous clouds of lice that cling to and kill countless wild fish trying to pass by the growing number of farms..." - excerpt from this article from The Oregonian.
