Closed containment systems are being offered many environmental organizations and scientists alike as the solution to many of the problems exposed in this documentary. From systems that reuse water and others that use the solid waste produced from the farm to feed other crops, closed containment systems that also ensure sources of fish feed are sustainable and don't rely heavily on wild fish stocks, and ensure sources of broodstock and energy use are also strictly assessed, will help transform the current disastrous industry into one with far fewer impacts to the environment.
