What is Sustainable Seafood?
Sustainable seafood is, quite simply, seafood caught in a way that ensures the health and greater good of our oceans and marine ecosystems for generations to come.
Sustainable seafood includes species that are abundant and resilient to fishing pressure, are harvested in ways that limit by-catch of other, possibly endangered species, and harvested in ways that limit damage to ocean habitats. These days it’s good to know where your food comes from – you can do this by choosing products labeled with Ocean Wise™.
What is Ocean Wise?
Ocean Wise is a Vancouver Aquarium conservation program created to educate and empower restaurants, suppliers and their customers about the issues surrounding sustainable seafood. Ocean Wise works directly with restaurants and markets, ensuring that they have the most current scientific information regarding seafood and helping them make ocean-friendly purchasing decisions.
In turn, Ocean Wise partners highlight these options, making it easier for consumers to make environmentally-friendly seafood choices. Here at Caudle’s we are dedicated to sourcing sustainable seafood, knowing where it was caught or harvested, and how it was caught or farmed.
The seafood choices that you make not only affect your health and that of your family, but also the health of our oceans. Buying seafood that is ocean-friendly helps contribute to fisheries and seafood farms around the world changing their practices – so that seafood is no longer overfished or harvested using destructive methods. Smart seafood choices help to achieve the long-term population of seafood and the ocean’s health.
