June 8 is World Ocean Day. Our ocean feeds billions of people, covers over 70% of the planet and provides 80% of the world’s biodiversity. We need to conserve our wonderful marine resources for future generations.
The MSC label helps everyone play their part and make sustainable choices. By choosing the blue tick, you can enjoy healthy seafood knowing you’re making the best choice for our ocean – for the life within it and for those whose livelihoods depend on it.
When we look after the ocean, the ocean looks after us.
