>>No, just because there's no law against it doesn't make it morally right.
Wait, are you replying to the right comment?
>>Also - I'm curious - have you ever contacted your representatives? Asked them to do anything about it?
Yes, I have. Have you?
>>But everyone else is just as apathetic as you, so there's no incentive to ever change anything.
Again, I feel like you're replying to the wrong comment. I feel like I live in a country with a very strong regulatory framework and things like fishing are treated very seriously with strong quotas on what can be caught not to overfish, and canned fish has to be clearly labeled where it came from and how it was caught. So I'm not sure which part of what I said comes across as apathetic to you.
>>I'm sure when the tuna finally goes, you'll say, "Yes, I ate tuna all my life, but I bear no responsibility - it's everyone else's fault."
I'll definitely say that it's the fault of the agencies tasked with protecting the flora and fauna that they are responsible for, not the consumers for eating tuna.
