I recently found out that a shopping center in the UK is offering “fish foot massages.” Animal Aid writes:
We have been informed that Queensmere Shopping Centre in Slough is offering ‘fish massages’. The fish are kept in small tanks, which people then put their feet into to be ‘massaged’. Please politely contact the shopping centre to complain about this exploitation of fish:
Queensmere Observatory Shopping Centre
Management Suite
Gallery Level
High Street
Slough SL1 1LNTelephone: 01753 537 654
If you are in the UK (or even if you are not.. international calls via Skype are very cheap), consider giving this shopping center a call or sending a letter. I’m sure if enough people show their disgust for such a practice, the shopping center will respond…

If you couldn't guess, I spend most of my time on CleanTechnica and Planetsave. I'm the director/editor of both sites and am a little obsessed with them and the topics they cover. I'm also Publishing Services Manager at Important Media, which means that I do everything I can to support other Important Media writers, editors, and directors (as well as the network as a whole) in the good work they are engaged in. You can also find my work on Scientific American, Reuters, Change.org, most of the sites in the Important Media network, & many other places. For more, or to connect, go to: zacharyshahan.com
