If you read Green, David Jolly's New York Times blog about energy and the environment, you may have caught the blog's coverage last month of Europe's bluefin-tuna conference. The International Commission for the Conservation of Atlantic Tunas met in Paris to discuss lowering the already-lowered catch limit on the endangered fish. But no dice: as Jolly noted, the countries who really, really love bluefin tuna — especially Japan — fought off a new, lower limit. And the issue isn't just a European and Asian one, as American Atlantic fisheries are affected, too.
