Ep. 92: Bill Taylor – President & CEO of the Atlantic Salmon Federation\u00a0<\/b>||<\/h3>\n
\"\"We welcome Bill Taylor – President & CEO of the world renowned conservation organization – Atlantic Salmon Federation. \u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n
Est. in 1948 – the Federation is dedicated to the conservation, protection and restoration of wild Atlantic salmon and the ecosystems on which their well being and survival depend.
\n.<\/span>
\nIn 2011, the Atlantic Salmon Federation (ASF) commissioned a report to calculate the economic impact for Atlantic Salmon in eastern Canada. \u00a0The results presented $255 million annually – and supported 4000 jobs. Relating to the success of project one article explained “in our political climate, money talks, and government tends to invest in industries that provide economic benefits and jobs to communities.”<\/em><\/span>
\n.<\/span>
\nJust last year Bill and his international team brokered a very important deal to preserve the sanctity of salmon in the wild. A landmark, 12-year agreement with Greenland Fisherman to suspend the commercial harvest of Salmon, and limit the quota to 20 ton subsistence quota. \u00a0This deal saves thousands of virile adult salmon every year.<\/div>\n
. <\/span><\/div>\n
In our 45 minute discussion we cover many areas of interest for fishermen, eaters and environmentalists. \u00a0 You’ll hear how ASF is a world-leading science and advocacy organization that has long-since been dedicated to conserving and restoring wild Atlantic salmon. You\u2019ll learn how the ASF seeks to expand upon current programs, and explore improving farming practices of salmon to benefit diverse stakeholders <\/span><\/div>\n

  3. If we want to preserve the natural migratory paths of animals – why not start with this iconic keystone species?<\/em><\/li>\n
  4. Could cleaning up farming practices of salmon establish cash-flow to invest back into the natural environment for their natural cousins?<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
