Overfishing
Overfishing is depleting the world’s oceans and having a negative impact on marine biodiversity and human health and prosperity.
Check out our Overfishing page in our Fish As Food section, which also features our guide to Sustainable Seafood Choices.
3 things you can do to lessen overfishing:
1. Research where seafood comes from in your local stores.
2. Choose seafood that is from a sustainable source.
3. When dining in a restaurant, ask the wait staff or chef about how sustainable the seafood is on their menu.
Other great ways you can make a difference.
