Some readers of this blog may remember my trip to the infamous Tokyo fish market a year or two ago, which given my background and original training as a marine biologist was nothing short of deeply shocking and somewhat mind-boggling. I blogged about it here in a post called "Fishy hangover cures and eternal damnation"
I was reminded of my encounter with the frozen tuna in the context of the film 'End of the Line' inspired by UK environment journalist Charles Clover's excellent and terrifying book of the same name. It's out in cinema's next week and looks to be yet another sobering reminder of the impact of so many rapacious hungry human mouths on the planet. It would be a true tragedy if we were to destroy beasts as magnificent as the bluefin tuna, just so we can put them on our plates...
Go and see the film, think twice about which seafood you eat and to whet your creative appetite and sate your piscivirous one watch the film's trailer below...
