The Ocean Environment
As a person who has spent a lot of time on and around the ocean, I've seen many unfortunate effects we humans have had on the environment. Pollution at sea, primarily from plastic waste is a far-too-common sight, even far from shore. Sustainable seafood is also of concern, since I love to eat fish, and I'd like future generations to have the same opportunities to enjoy seafood. Here are some links to informative websites on these very important topics.
Monterey Bay Aquarium: Seafood Watch
Besides being a fascinating place to visit, The Monterey Bay Aquarium produces some very handy, pocket-sized
seafood guides.
These cards tell you which seafoods may be better to order at a restaurant or fish market than others, whether the reason be overfishing, bycatch or other issues.
They are a great quick reference to help you decide which seafood to choose, and which to avoid.
