I dunno. The issue is actually pretty complicated. Global fisheries crash will have catastrophic ​effects on civilization for sure. But ocean farmed fish might not alleviate the pressure on those fisheries. The fish we can farm tend to be pelagic rather than benthic and farming Atlantic salmon in the pacific has a bit of a Jurassic Park subtext. The cages rain toxic shit down to be carried away with the.currents which leaves a definable trail of damage. Etc. Freshwater fish farming, hell yes. Tilapia in big tanks? Great idea. But there are some gray areas let's just say.
