Since my desire to eat delicious herring is in competition with your desire to burn fish oil in your car and I'm willing to outbid you by a very large margin; I'm going to get the fish and your car is not. Only one my and everyone elses desire to eat cheap, delicious fish is sated will you have any fish left over for the biofuels refiners. “I’m sorry, I can’t understand the objections…”

I'm guessing that the fish is going to be "produce" just for harvesting the algae. If that's the case then there are no implications for overfishing. In the "Keeping fish in crowded pens" issue, may I remind everybody how chickens are "produced". That doesn't mean I'm in favor of that, but there's no practical difference. Even with cows the situation has some similarities. I’m sorry, I can’t understand the objections… I’m guessing that the fish is going to be “produce” just for harvesting the algae.
