Marine Stewardship Council - The MSC Standard For Sustainable Fishing

The MSC Standard For Sustainable Fishing

The MSC environmental standard for sustainable fishing was developed over two years through a consultative process involving more than 300 expert organisations and individuals around the world. It is consistent with the ‘Guidelines for the Eco-labelling of Fish and Fishery Products from Marine Wild Capture Fisheries’ adopted by the UN Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO) in 2005.

Famous quotes containing the words standard and/or fishing:

    We don’t want bores in the theatre. We don’t want standardised acting, standard actors with standard-shaped legs. Acting needs everybody, cripples, dwarfs and people with noses so long. Give us something that is different.
    Dame Sybil Thorndike (1882–1976)

    If fishing is a religion, fly fishing is high church.
    Tom Brokaw (b. 1940)
