- Norwegian fish farms polluting fjords with waste likened to ‘raw sewage of millions of people’
Norwegian fish farms are polluting fjords with waste equivalent to the raw sewage of tens of millions of people each year, releasing 75,000 tonnes of nitrogen and other nutrients into coastal waters. Norway is the largest farmed salmon producer in the world. The pollution is caused by excess nutrients from fish feed being excreted directly into the water.
