It intrigues me no end that as harmful as eating seafood has become due to excessively high mercury levels across all ocean species, we continue to consume it like there's no tomorrow - which, ironically, there won't be for us if we don't stop. We are literally fishing our oceans clear of all life and we're doing it at staggering speed.

It's so much easier to eat a more plant-based diet these days, we have so much better information about how to eat healthier and that plant-based is healthier for almost everyone, that it perpetually amazes me that so many environmentally-minded people aren't aware of the impact of our food choices or don't promote a change that really could turn things around for all of us.
