Which is best / least bad for the environment? Salmon or trout? Is the difference significant?

  1. I’m assuming both are farmed. In which case they’re equally as «bad».

    I prefer to avoid farmed salmon/trout. I stick with wild white fish.

    I grew up in the pacific northwest where wild salmon is still widely available.

  2. Eat the salmon, because trout is a solitary fish.

  3. But is bad shit and people should be in jail for the destruction of our fjords.

  4. No idea. Been 3 years since i could afford any of those.

  5. From what I recall, trout is the lesser evil environmentally speaking, but salmon is a lesser evil seen from an animal welfare perspective.

    I gave up both years ago, seiblokk is my main fish these days. Tolerable environmental strain, and I can afford it.
