The Australian Marine Conservation Society is proud to offer responsible seafood eaters Australia's first national guide to choosing sustainable seafood. The Guide has been developed in response to growing public concern for our oceans and helps you make a responsible seafood choice. 

Overfishing, destructive fishing gear and poor aquaculture practices impact significantly on our marine wildlife such as dolphins, sharks and turtles, as well as on marine habitats like coral reefs, seagrass meadows and kelp forests. Three quarters of the world's oceans are officially over-exploited or fished right up to their limit. Once considered inexhaustible, our oceans are now in a state of global crisis and they need our help now. If you care about our oceans and are worried about the seafood you eat, then this is the guide for you.
