Seafood Watch

One of the most overexploited resources on Earth is fisheries. Most people do not realize that much of the seafood they eat is harvested unsustainably. Choose a common type of seafood found in restaurants and grocery stores. What is its status? What is the best choice for consumers to eat and what types should be avoided? Explain why the seafood you selected is the best choice or should be avoided. Attach or insert a picture of the species. Each students species must be different from everyone elses in the class.

The Monterey Bay Aquarium Seafood Watch website is a good place to start your research.

One suggested solution for this issue is requiring fish sold in stores and restaurants to have a sustainability rating so consumers can make informed decisions regarding seafood purchases.

Be sure to include full citations for any resources you used to obtain your facts or formulate your opinion for your entries.
