Non-farmed fishing is sweeping the oceans clean and making several species slide dangerously close to extinction.
If anything, farming is the more sustainable choice.

What he said
I won't eat cod or tuna unless I know it's been sustainably sourced

Also haddock and basically all the fish and chip shop varieties.
You're really only safe with the ones you've never heard of.

"the death of animals bother's me very little but the mistreatment does somewhat."
Do not assume that because I am a vegetarian* I am a hippy, or indeed a nice person.

*see previous disclaimers and conditions etc.

Fishing to extinction could be argued to be "mistreatment".

Yes dear.
To clarify: I do not give a flying fuck about animals dying (even to the extent that they become extinct) But I do not wish them to suffer needless pain/discomfort during their lifetimes. In line with this, I generally eat vegetables, sometimes fish, and very, very occasionally (so far once every 2.5 years) ethically sourced meat.

If you are bothered by over fishing I suggest you stop eating fish.

My eating habits are in line with my beliefs, and I have no more interest in pushing them on others than I have in others pushing theirs on me.
