• Greenpeace advocates the removal of all fish farms
from B.C. waters and the transfer of all fin fish farming to closed
containment or land-based pens.
• Greenpeace opposes any new open netcage fish farms or
the expansion of any current farms on the coast.
• In the face of overwhelming international and local
research illustrating the negative impact fin fish open netcage
farms have on local wild stocks, Greenpeace demands all fish farms
in the sensitive Broughton Archipelago be removed.
• As a first step toward phase-out, Greenpeace demands
the immediate fallowing of all sites in the Broughton Archipelago
to provide emergency protection for the ecosystem and declining
pink salmon and herring.
