It's all scary. The burgeoning population of the Earth is ridiculous, and if we run out of oil we are screwed, in terms of food. Our food supply is way too dependent on oil, and we're not trying for alternatives nearly fast enough, imo.

Fish farming has huge, negative implications for the oceans. Hmmmm..... i see this (btw, your link no longer works, for me) "Our goal is to develop a sustainable aquaculture program that balances the needs of fishermen, coastal residents and visitors, seafood consumers, the environment, and the aquaculture industry," said NOAA Administrator Conrad C. Lautenbacher, Jr. NOAA said there are advantages to locating fish farms farther off shore including water depth, currents and water quality. Pilot projects have used submerged cages for fish and long lines for mussels. Does that really sound scary to you?
