This Week In Suzuki



















There's a good Science Matters column on seafood and sustainability in the current prairie dog (available FREE at 400 locations city-wide). I post here to pimp this fine article.

Sustainable fishing is an important topic since researchers have suggested the world's fisheries will be overfished and destroyed in our lifetime. What's nice is how David Suzuki's column provides some practical advice on how to purchase fish without contributing to (or at least exacerbating) the annihilation of ocean life. The centrepiece of the article is a mention of the website seachoice.org, which ranks delicious fishies by sustainability. But the problem with Suzuki's column in our dead-tree edition is that the links don't do anything when you click on them.

So in the interests of making people's lives more clickable, I've posted the link here. Check out seachoice.org and share the link with all your grocer and restaurant owner friends. Because not only are fish interesting and beautiful animals, they are too tasty to wipe out through over-fishing stupidity.

Click it. Do it. Share it. Use it. The tuna will love you for it. And then you can eat them!
