The good news? No land-based salmon farms operate in the UK – yet.

A global movement is rising to #PullThePlug and stop this destructive industry before it becomes the new normal.

Land-based salmon farming is an environmental and ethical disaster:
⚠️ Drains the ocean of wild fish, stolen from coastal communities for salmon feed
⚠️ Devours water and energy
⚠️ Risky tech with frequent failures, pollution, mass die-offs
⚠️ Causes suffering on an industrial scale

What is land-based salmon? It’s industrial fish farming in tanks.

Salmon – born to swim through rivers and seas – are now crammed into sterile tanks under artificial lights inside factories.

From wild rivers to prison tanks. It’s absurd and cruel. (2/5)

They call for:
🌾 Fair farmer income support
🌱 Create the economic conditions for the agroecological (e.g., organic) transition
🚜 Make farming attractive
🌿 Invest in ecosystems and support farmers in the transition
❌ End harmful subsidies
💶 EU budget that delivers on public goals

🤝We fully support these local initiatives in having their demands taken seriously. Current biogas targets are unrealistic to achieve in a sustainable way and risk locking us into dependence on big livestock factories.

The National Biogas Concern Group is part of our StopTheBiomethaneRush Coalition and has made a crucial contribution to the biomethane booklet: foodrise.eu/stopthebiome...

We’re revealing the downsides of biomethane that the industry won’t tell you about 🫢

❌ Turning manure into biogas doesn’t eliminate enteric emissions from animals, which are actually much higher (48%) than emissions from manure (only 17%) itself.

🗣️ Give local communities a real voice at the decision-making tables where policies and biogas development plans are made.

🐄 A large share of biogas is produced from manure - and the industry expects this will contribute to a third of total EU biomethane production by 2030. Let’s not depend on industrial animal factories - not for our food ánd not for our energy.

💡Curious which banks are financing these harmful practices? (Spoiler: Rabobank and ABN Amro are among the biggest backers)
