Preserve Mangroves for a Sustainable and Ethical Shrimp Industry
Intact mangroves play a crucial role in protecting ecosystems and acting as nursery habitats, enhancing resilience against waves. Destroying mangroves for shrimp farming results in the loss of essential functions and pollution due to high-density shrimp farming. This practice leads to the excessive use of antibiotics and poor living conditions for the shrimp. Moreover, there are concerns about shrimp being peeled by slaves in Southeast Asia, highlighting ethical issues in the industry. To support sustainability and ethical practices, consumers are advised to inquire about the shrimp's source and opt for domestically farmed shrimp, even if it comes at a higher cost. Choosing responsibly sourced shrimp is crucial for protecting the environment and ensuring ethical practices in the industry.
