Globe Trekker: Langoustine Adventure

A little lobster-like creature will now be caught in Scotland, shipped to Thailand, where it's processed, and then shipped back to the UK to be sold as scampi.

Why's that a story? Because it's apparently a cautionary tale of "the environmental madness of modern globalisation", rather than just another story about the high cost of doing business in Scotland (or in any well-off country, for that matter).
