SeafoodSource.com Suggests Seafood Buyers Consider Catch Shares for Sustainability

Lisa Duchene, SeafoodSource's contributing editor, shared her commentary a few days ago with the publication's audience of commercial seafood buyers. "Does your sustainable seafood purchasing policy address 'catch shares?' Maybe it should," writes Duchene.

Of course, EDF agrees. Quoting the critical study by Christopher Costello and Steven Gaines published in the journal Science, Duchene states the facts pointing toward well-designed catch shares as the sustainable solution to rebuilding our nation's fish stocks.
