The importance of eating sustainable fish

I am really not sure what this little cuddly cat is doing promoting certified sustainable fish but he does look cute!

I was invited to hear all about the work of the Marine stewardship council (MSC), which is a charity running a campaign for sustainable fishing.  They have developed standards for sustainable fishing and seafood traceability.  This ensures that MSC labelled seafood, comes from and can be traced back to, a sustainable fishery. 

This means that it is easier for us to make the right choices when we are shopping- just look for the eco- label and know that you are helping the environment!
