Antarctic Toothfish - Potential For Unsustainable Consumption

Potential For Unsustainable Consumption

In 2010, Greenpeace International added the Antarctic toothfish to its seafood red list. "The Greenpeace International seafood red list is a list of fish that are commonly sold in supermarkets around the world, and which have a very high risk of being sourced from unsustainable fisheries." Noting that this approach is at variance with the high score given the fishery when it was granted certification by the Marine Stewardship Council. http://www.msc.org/track-a-fishery/certified/southern-ocean/ross-sea-toothfish-longline

Famous quotes containing the words potential and/or consumption:

    The traditional American husband and father had the responsibilities—and the privileges—of playing the role of primary provider. Sharing that role is not easy. To yield exclusive access to the role is to surrender some of the potential for fulfilling the hero fantasy—a fantasy that appeals to us all. The loss is far from trivial.
    Faye J. Crosby (20th century)

    What happens is that, as with drugs, he needs a stronger shot each time, and women are just women. The consumption of one woman is the consumption of all. You can’t double the dose.
    Ian Fleming (1908–1964)
