Interactive Report
In the fourth edition of Greenpeace’s seafood sustainability scorecard, Carting Away the Oceans, we are noticing a trend emerging among the largest US seafood retailers. It’s becoming clear that several supermarkets—such as Wegmans, Target, and Whole Foods—are deeply invested in making better decisions and providing safer, more sustainable seafood options for their customers.
At the same time, there are many supermarkets that haven’t taken any responsibility for the seafood they sell, or for the damage they are doing to our oceans—such as H.E.B., Meijer, Costco, SUPERVALU, Publix, and Winn Dixie.

Charting Progress
Currently, destructive fishing practices and overfishing are among the most significant threats facing the world’s oceans. Three quarters of global fish stocks are suffering from overfishing and 90% of top marine predators are already gone. Destructive fishing practices destroy habitats, pirate fishing harms global fish stocks and as the ocean becomes more vulnerable—it will succumb more quickly to the harmful effects of global warming.

Blacklisted
Greenpeace put together the blacklist database to publicly expose irresponsible fishing operators and the companies behind them. It provides a convenient tool for national fisheries administrators, and others to quickly check on the compliance status of a foreign vessel trying to unload its catch in port, seeking services in port, seeking a fishing license or to register or flag in a country. Greenpeace also encourages retailers and suppliers to use the database to ensure the fish they source do not come from pirate fishing vessels or from companies involved in such activities.

Red Fish
There are some fish that we all should just say NO to eating. They are in serious trouble of total collapse. We should give them a break, leave them alone and let them recover.
