Gore's Message Loses Bite (Al Gore serves up endangered fish at daughter's party)

Restaurant reports it did not serve endangered fish. See Drudge.<<

I looked up the MSC.

It’s a charity for people that want to feel good about eating endangered species. The Gore spokesperson, and the restaurant were light on the details, that’s why they did not want to get too far into it. If the fish is caught in the wild, and endangered, you have no regard for endangered species.

Not much to argue about. It is exactly like carbon credit offsets.

Remember the movie “The Freshman”? In that movie, there also was a club for people who also wanted to feel good about eating endangered species. It has a happy ending, and it’s a very funny movie.

The fish is slow to mature, incapable of breeding until they reach 10 to 12 years in age. As stocks have dwindled, younger and younger specimens are taken to the point that fish are taken before they have a chance to reproduce. In essence, we have gotten to the point of eating the seed corn. Where will next years crop come from?

Sounds about like the state of Orange Roughy, when I left the fish biz five years ago.
