We already massively overfish, is that really your solution? It’ll mean more intense factory farming of seafood, creating huge amounts of water based pollution.
Not all types of fish are overfished, some (like haddock) are sustainable. Just as some crops are farmed responsibly, and others (like California almonds) are not.
I see you noticed that mackerel had it’s “sustainable” status removed. Sad times. ^^’
I didn’t think Haddock had gotten back on the sustainable side either, most things can be done sustainably up to a certain volume. If the entire population turns it’s eye on it then demand far outstrips supply and goodbye sustainability.
There are more native English speakers in my country than yours. So I’ll continue to use the definition that they understand, which is also the definition used by Encyclopedia Britannica.
But if I ever visit your landlocked English-speaking country (assuming such a place exists), then I’ll try to keep in mind that local customs differ when eating at your restaurants.

That’s for sure! My country’s native language is not English, so you’re again right that my landlocked country is not an English-speaking one.
Continue using whatever you want, don’t be surprised if your illogical words don’t make sense to someone else.
If you want to go by sheer numbers, I think in India there’s more native English speakers than in US and they use a variation of British English and as far as I know, seafood there means what any sane person would assume. Hell, you don’t have to go with English, my language’s version (literally translated to English as “fruits of the sea”) also means only fish/shellfish from the sea. And I guess most (if not all) countries use it the same way.

Or switch to a seafood-based diet, which has a much smaller CO2 footprint than land-based agriculture.
“just eat seafood”. Brought to you by the comment thread on the article about the fact that the oceans are half way to literally fucking boiling.
Well, I can’t give you gold obviously, so here’s my first comment ever. That comment was fucking gold!
Yes, precooked meals are an additional advantage.

Well, doesn’t sound it helps CO2 when you live in a landlocked country like I do.
Does your country have rivers or lakes? Seafood isn’t always found in a sea.
Seafood is literally always found in sea.
Seafood commonly includes freshwater species such as catfish, trout, and some salmon.
Ah, Americans are redefining words again.
Normal English:
US English:
I’m gonna go with the definition that makes sense and say that no, we don’t have any local seafood, simply because we don’t have any sea.
