Stop illegal, unreported & unregulated seafood.
Around 65% of the seafood we eat in Australia is imported¹. Currently, those imports are allowed into the country and onto our plates without any laws for traceability, sustainability or ethics.
Australia is at risk of being a dumping ground for seafood from illegal, destructive and exploitative fisheries and farms without border controls on imported seafood. Along with our poor traceability and labelling requirements, it’s challenging to know what we’re really eating and where it’s from.
It’s simple, we want the same rules for all seafood sold in Australia, to ensure a fair catch.
Please chip in today to choose sustainable seafood.
