Salmon at Market

by Catherine Haug, May 5, 2012

Food and Water Watch is watching our backs when it comes to healthful seafood. Much of the earth’s oceans and spawning streams are contaminated with mercury and other toxic heavy metals, PCBs, petroleum-based toxins and lots of other foul stuff, that then contaminate the seafood that live in the waters, and finally us.

Which fisheries are the cleanest?, Which species accumulate less toxic load than others?

Now you can consult Food & Water Watch’s handy 2012 Seafood Guide, to help you make healthful selections at the market, and support clean fisheries. There is an online guide, a downloadable pocket guide and much more. Read on for the links.
