REFLECTION QUESTIONFoodMany states and countries have advisories on eating fish. Find out what is advised for your region. Do you think your diet choices fall within these guidelines? What steps do you need to take to make sure that they do?
Nick Rickert 4/09/2021 1:26 PMThere is only a restriction for catfish and carp in Montgomery County, Maryland. Other seafood has no limit. I do not eat any fish because sustainable fishing is not enforced and many ocean ecosystems are already dead or close to dying around the world as a result of the disturbance of fishing.
