Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
Seafood has increasingly become a staple of American diets. Yet the U.S. imports over 70% of the fish Americans eat. Many policy makers believe that open-ocean aquaculture- fish farming in waters far off the coast- represents a potential solution to increasing domestic supplies of salmon, tuna and other in-demand fish. Hear about the Bush administration’s plan to quintuple domestic fish farming by 2025, and why some environmental groups are wary.
