Make Informed Decisions with Seafood Watch

Seafood Watch, an educational and awareness program launched by Monterey Bay Aquarium in Monterey, CA, is continuing its efforts toward sustainability through online media. On Seafood Watch’s website, consumers can discover the best means to enjoy seafood while also curtailing negative ecological issues causes from overfishing. Statistical data, peer-reviewed publications, and helpful charts and guides make it easy for environmentally-conscious consumers, producers, and sellers to contribute, inform, and educate. In addition to educational information on sustainability and the plight of worldwide fish populations, the program also provides an extensive recipe guide for creating delicious and environmentally-friendly meals.
