Green - An environmentalist community

The numbers listed here are quite low as a percentage of the 1-3 trillion fish slowly tortured to death every year by the fishing industry on purpose.

Scottish creel rope kills:

• 6 humpback whales
• 30 minke whales

UK-only vessels, annual bycatch killed estimates:

• 120 tonnes of "protected" sharks, skates, and rays
• 10 000 seabirds
• 1 000+ endangered Atlantic salmon
• 1 000 harbour porpoises and common dolphins
• 500 seals

Globally

• 400 000 seabird deaths from drowning due to gillnets

Orders of magnitude worse suffering is caused by factory farms where another 1-3 trillion fish are enslaved in continuous torturous conditions their entire lives.

It’s time to stop sponsoring the fishing industry. Either with government subsidies or with your own pocket money

there's no economic gain without a little or a lot of garbage
