We have cut back on consuming fish. For 2 reasons, the first one being environmental. The second is of concern of the amount of mercury and toxins that fish accumulate.

I don't eat "land meat" for environmental reasons, but I keep fish in moderation in my diet for protein and essential fatty acids. As I am an athlete and a student, this was the best compromise in terms of environmental accountability, time to prepare, and health requirements. Some fish species (i.e. predatory) are more susceptible to high mercury concentrations. I figure the amount of mercury I ingest from fish is low enough and over long enough intervals to cause less harm to me, and the environment, then eating hormone infused steak. When I have money, I will be researching considering organic meats. Even organic cows require land and produce manure though.
