The best guide we have found for selecting fish and shellfish is Seafood Watch's Seafood Guide. You will discover their best choices, as well as their warnings. There is a sea of information available. Cast your net and see what you catch. I learned that you have to be discerning when buying cod; not all cod is recommended, especially Atlantic Cod. I also found out that the monkfish, poor man's lobster, we buy is caught using gillnets, which can result in the accidental capture and death of sea turtles and marine mammals.
Using this guide will help you make healthier, better educated, sustainable choices. You can print out the Sea Watch pocket-sized guide to carry with you. You can also get Seafood Watch for your iPhone. Join their Take Action for the Oceans community.
