October 7, 2014 New England

The Hippie tells us You’ll be able to buy lobsters, oysters and swordfish at Joe’s Lobster Mart for at least a couple more days.,, “Vaudo on the other hand fucked over the very community that supports his business.

NILS STOLPE: The New England groundfish debacle (Part IV): Is cutting back harvest really the answer?

While it’s a fact that’s hardly ever acknowledged, the assumption in fisheries management is that if the population of a stock of fish isn’t at some arbitrary level, it’s because of too much fishing.
