Tiny shrimps - huge problems

30 December 2011

Shrimps are popular and there are many different ways of serving them.

Unfortunately a recipe for restricting the damages created by breeding the little critters hasn't been published yet.

So the shrimp-farm havocs will continue to ruin mangrove forests, decrease wild fish stock and pollute coastal areas....

Of course, nobody is forced to eat such meals....
