A Sustainable seafood consumption with Mr Goodfish

Launched in March 2010 in France by Nausicaá, in Italy by the Acquario di Genova and in Spain by the Aquarium Finisterrae, the European program "Mr.Goodfish" aims to raise awareness to the general public and professionals about the sustainable consumption of seafood products guide them in their choice. The programme involves the consumers in the preservation of marine resources by publishing, each season, a list of seafood products recommended by marine resource specialists. The aim of this approach is to preserve stocks of threatened seafood products by consuming other stocks that are available in abundance. Thus, if each French person consumed just once a year a species recommended by Mr. Goodfish, 20,000 tons of threatened species could be saved. Since 2017, the Mr.Goodfish programme has also issued recommendations concerning products from farmed fish.
