Sustainable Shrimp Farming

The United States imports over a billion pounds of shrimp annually. Most of it travels thousands of miles from tropical farms, which have often degraded mangroves and other sensitive areas of coastlines. Now some U.S. shrimp farmers are raising shrimp indoors, using environmentally friendly techniques, and they’re producing a fresh, delicious product with a much gentler carbon footprint.
