You report on the issue of organic waste generated by cod fishing. When I visited the Lofoten Islands in Norway, cod waste was turned into fertiliser. A little forklift trundled back and forth all day feeding cod heads, bones and skin from the fish finger factory into a fertiliser plant. It smelled horrible, but the Lofoten people cheerfully said it was the smell of money (20 January, p 22).
