Podle zprávy Sunstone Institute norská akvakultura vypouští do fjordů a pobřežních vod živiny v množství ekvivalentním nečištěné odpadní vodě 17,2 milionu lidí (dusík), 20 milionům lidí (fosfor) a 30 milionům lidí (organický uhlík), což vyvolává obavy z destruktivních algových květů, zatímco současná produkce ryb je 3-5krát větší než obyvatelstvo Norska, přičemž většina těchto znečišťujících látek se vydává v letních měsících, kdy ekosystémy mají potíže s absorpcí živin. #NutrientPollution #AquacultureImpact #EnvironmentalConcerns
