On top of warming waters, another nail in the coffin for Scottish #salmon farming. Wave good bye to your far eastern markets, soon they will fulfil their own needs. Hope you have planned a just transition for workers? Mairi Gougeon Salmon Scotland fishfocus.co.uk/proximar-tripl…

This is exciting, the U.S wont need Scottish farmed #salmon, Japan are now growing their own. Seems little point in expanding this contentious industry in Scotland? Mairi Gougeon Less food miles = GOOD. U.S. CAPABLE OF ACHIEVING SEAFOOD INDEPENDENCE fishfocus.co.uk/u-s-capable-of…

Native oysters with whopping ascidian hitchhikers in Loch Broom today. These sea squirts have the same planktonic diet as the oysters.⁦ Seawilding - Native Oyster & Seagrass Restoration

Ailsa McLellan Rachel Reeves Màiri McAllan Mairi Gougeon That industry does know a lot about killing. I hope they degrowth themselves right out of Scotland.

The thin end, of a red wedge. #Arcticterns enter the red list. The dread we have known for a long time. #saveourseabirds #Papay #Orkney

Reform is required to remove Norwegian (foreign state) fish farming interests from Scotlands Marine Planning frameworks and questions asked about governments relationship with its fish farming interest neighbours at Charlotte. Square!

Not a bad day at work. ⁦Seawilding - Native Oyster & Seagrass Restoration⁩

This looks great for anyone near Oban tonight.

You say there are not enough people to fill the jobs, which is it? We need to stop the industry generated myths around #salmon farming. ‘The labour pool has shrunk considerably, with key staff returning home to eastern Europe in the wake of Brexit.’ Tavish Scott Mairi Gougeon

Yet another industry whining that they're not allowed to just pollute with impunity - if we keep on allowing such recklessness, there will be no wild salmon left.

Incredible how sure of themselves the foreign owned #salmon industry are. Here they openly ask for LESS regulation, despite the fact they have not managed to meet recommendations from the 2018 enquiry into their practices. MORE mortalities + MORE chemical use since then.🐟☠️🤑

"Mowi hails fall in mortalities over August" reports Fish Farmer Magazine Mowi Scotland Limited fishfarmermagazine.com/2024/09/04/mow… The devil is in the detail - mortality data Salmon Scotland shows 59% death rate at Mowi's Noster in July & 66% mortality in June in Loch Alsh salmonscotland.co.uk/reports

The salmon farming industry is a disaster - for the environment, for marine life, and for the communities that depend on healthy ecosystems. The fact that it's still being certified by RSPCA (England & Wales) is just wrong... We need transparency and action to stop this destruction. Time

Otter very relaxed despite having a human and three dogs gawking at him from a small boat! ⁦Seawilding - Native Oyster & Seagrass Restoration⁩
