"Artifishal looks specifically at how fish hatcheries and fish farms threaten wild salmon populations, which in turn has ecosystem-wide effects -- all because of our desire to eat these culturally significant species.But instead of helping wild salmon recover, we've created hatcheries and farms to make more of them -- at great cost, both economically and ecologically. The film explores the process, the tradeoffs, and what's at stake if we continue down this path. As Artifishal and its filmmakers travel around the country conducting screenings with community organizations, we spoke with Murphy about what he learned making the film and why wild salmon are so important." --,Back cover.
