I'm no expert at all: I was just hoping the thread could get a bit more focussed. I found out the info about two minutes before posting it, but the example does show how easy it is to get out of date. My feeling is that the fishing industry is probably doomed to overfish itself into oblivion. And since it seems fish are getting full of plastics we have dumped into the ocean, I'm getting less attracted to the idea of eating them.

Regarding research into pesticides, the precautionary principle seems like a good idea to me.
