2. Mote to Make Fish Farming Greener Using Saltwater Plants

   Mote’s earth-friendly fish farm is about to get even greener — a large-scale project is getting under way this week that will begin using solid fish waste to grow saltwater plants for restoration projects.
   The project is designed to be a model of how saltwater fish farms can cost-effectively recycle all of their waste — a goal commercial-scale aquaculture has yet to achieve. The move is a key step forward for sustainable aquaculture at Mote.
