Incredible that I visited this very town that the video is showing footage of. So beautiful. The global fishing industry needs regulation, but regions where it is harvested on a mass scale such as Chile as hit the hardest by the ever-increasing demand and the lack of supply. This effects the pescaderos artesenales, or independent fisherman who depend on this for a living. Obviously the excessive use of hormones and the effects of bacteria are incredibly detrimental to the industry as well, not to mention the Chilean economy as a whole. This all can be tied into environmental impact, but the situation has economic and social impacts too.

Pinochet gets his own Museum of Memory
Not sure how I feel about this.
Defending the Dictator: History gets a rewrite at the Pinochet Museum
"Do we feel responsible for it? Yes. Do we feel guilt? No."
"For every young man we recover we will have one less communist" Dios mio...
