FISHWISE
and
THE COMMON VISON FOR
ENVIRONMENTALLY sustainable SEAFOOD
FishWise is a non-profit seafood sustainability
consultancy dedicated to promoting ocean conservation through partnerships with
key players in the industry. FishWise
partners with retailers, distributors, fishers, aquaculturists, and other
stakeholders to create a more transparent chain of custody and to increase the
amount of sustainable seafood available to American consumers. Using a variety of tools and programs
including point-of-purchase materials, employee training, strategic planning,
publicity, scientific fishery analysis, and sourcing support, FishWise is
paving the way for a more sustainable future for the seafood industry.
FishWise is also a founding organization of the Conservation
Alliance for Seafood Solutions and its Common Vision. FishWise supports the precepts of the Common
Vision and works to promote environmentally responsible seafood in all its partnerships.
The seafood industry can make important contributions to the health of ocean
ecosystems, upon which their seafood departments depend, by adopting the
provisions set out in the Common Vision. FishWise, along with its Conservation
Alliance partners is interested in working with companies to achieve this
vision. By offering businesses the tools and information they need to become
more sustainable, FishWise hopes to ensure the long term viability of important
ocean resources.
