Negative.

How so? Have they died in the "toxic" areas? Or are they alive there?

Never ate seafood much to begin with, and I only really ate catfish which are freshwater fish if I did.

The Gulf of mexico has a dead zone area that floats around that is the run off chemicals from farms that use pesticides and other things. this dead zone is almost void of oxygen. the chemical get to the Gulf from the rivers that are connected to the Mississippi.

shrimp eaters stay losing.

YUCK!!! thanks for posting...... a problem is america relies on sooo many exports its a shame

people want things cheap, but don't realize the price they pay to get it that way.

i know....the problem is it builds up in a persons system over time causing stuff like cancer and other shit...........
anybody know even if getting stuff organic is safe? i know its more expensive but how do we "really" know its organic.....its in fruits imported overseas...all the pesticides and shit....wish America could support locally produced foods free from all this crap...

I can't find it, but I was reading an article about how the organic food industry isn't really tightly regulated. so it's possible they could use pesticides, just at a minimum amount or something like that. idk, seems like we're screwed either way lmao. the only thing I can think of is buying local

@afrobanditt ....i know..i recall reading that somewhere also that the organic food industry is also not really all that either...and some of their stuff is NOT REALLY grown as they advertised....smh....

Interesting that there's more outrage about people that eat sea food than about the low lifes that did this to the earth. The same low lifes that flash there 15 second commercials on tv telling people how everything is fine and okay and to keep on living. Speaking of hydrocarbons in the food chain, people really should investigate parrafin wax on their shinny red apples that really shouldn't be shinny.

The Only real way to get around this is to grow your own.

this aint even news to me. I expected this shit to happen

monolithicpaw · April 2012

I believe that Conservation and Green living is key for the Recovery of America. We've become a Nation of consumers, With very little Production. As a start If We produce that which is most vital to Our existence, We possibly bring about a positive turn around that puts more power into Our Hands. As a Country, We've had Our different stages of evolvement. Colonialism, Slavery, Agricultural. Industrialism, Information... The Next Age that will move this Country forward Will Be about Sustainability. If not, We continue Our decline. Issues like this should induce prolonged outrage as well as Personal accountability.

Oh the seafood industry is all fucked up. My geography professor was telling me all kinds of shit. Fish are eating other fish and are developing "mad fish" disease like how the cows were doing.
from all the shit they give the fish at the fish farms they are losing their natural color so they have to dye them especially salmon. its a bunch of other shit that i wrote down. but really if you knew what they did to animals and a lot of the produce you wouldn't eat a damn thing

Man I hope no contagion type shit happens

If sea life in these "toxic waters" are only affected by losing eyes, color, or whatever else but they still live in these toxic waters, they normally wouldnt, they've adapted to their environment. Now if the waters were to stay toxic for millions of years with oil, they would evolve, since they've adapted, and use the toxicity to their advantage.

Would have never happened, oils too much of a greedy business. You think this is the only spill? There's tons we havent heard of, there's tons of waste that pollute our seas, such as plastics.

BP wouldn't go anywhere if they had an even bigger spill.

Anything overly shiny you can clean, anything thats giant, that shouldn't be, shouldn't be eaten.
