#DomoicAcid can also accumulate in #shellfish & small #fish that feed on the #algae, leading to poisoning in larger #marine animals & humans who consume contaminated #seafood.
Addressing the urgent need to monitor the impact of harmful #AlgalBlooms on #MarineSpecies requires collective strategies. The destructive #California #wildfires, which have contaminated our #oceans & are threatening #MarineLife, serve as a critical call to action for collaborative efforts to protect marine environments….
I ate 2 lbs of manilla #clams by myself over last weekend. My dipping sauces: nuoc cham & finely minced garlic with butter.
Thrifty Foods on Admirals Rd. sells farmed manilla clams from the Fanny Bay Seafood company up island.
Bacon-wrapped scallops are the perfect appetizer for a special occasion, family get-together, or dinner party. The savory bacon and the scallop’s sweet flavor is a match made in heaven. #Food & Dining #Food News #recipe #appetizer #seafood #shellfish

#China wants to restore the #sea with high-tech marine ranches
China is the world's top #fish consumer and is spending billions on technology designed to restock #oceans.
Since 2015, China has built 169 “national demonstration ranches” and scores of smaller-scale facilities, which collectively have laid 67 million cubic meters of artificial #reefs and planted an area size of Manhattan with #seagrass, while releasing at least 167B juvenile fish and #shellfish into ocean.

"Spanish fishers in #Galicia — Europe’s main source of #shellfish and the biggest producer of #mussels in the world — are reporting a “catastrophic” collapse in shellfish populations due to the #climate crisis.
Some shellfish stocks have plummeted by 90 percent in just a few years."

We picked up 2lbs of manilla #clams from #FannyBaySeafoodStore in #UnionBay by Denman/Hornby Islands ferry & ate them all on our first night at cabin last week. We had butter & garlic plus nuoc cham with lime juice & chili sauce for dipping. It was so good.
Cost us just over $20.
