JELLYFISH: a possible solution.

A research of an Italian university showed that the excess of jellyfish in the Mediterranean Sea causes each year high costs for the health service, as well as for some industries and for fishing.

So...this university made a proposal: why don't we eat them?
In China and other countries they're already doing it and jellyfish are considered a prized food. Actually, they have a low caloric content and they are rich of proteins, Omega 3 and Omega 6.

Today the turnover linked to the consumption of jellyfish is higher than 25 million euros. But there's a problem...the EU recognizes as edible only the Asian jellyfish and not the European ones.

The aim of this Italian university is to study in deep the nutritional properties of the European jellyfish, and also to investigate their possible use in the zootechnique and in the pharmaceutical research.

Finally salvation and justice for seals!

Canada and Norway LOST their appeal against the embargo imposed by the EU countries on the import of seal derivatives! 

The two countries had tried to appeal against the decision of the World Trade Organization (WTO), which during the last Novermber had confirmed the validity of the European embargo. 
The world public opinion is no longer willing to endure the despicable massacres on the Canadian ice and this is proven by the fact that, after the EU, also other countries decided to put an embargo on those products. These states are Taiwan, Russia (which alone took almost 90% of the slaughtered Canadian seals) and China, shattering Canadian hopes to dampen the western loss of revenue selling in the Chinese emerging market.
