GoodFish Australia 3.1

GoodFish: Australia's Sustainable Seafood Guide serves as a practical resource for consumers seeking to make environmentally responsible choices regarding their seafood consumption. This independent guide aims to inform individuals about sustainable options and encourage more conscientious decision-making in the context of ocean conservation.

As a comprehensive tool, the GoodFish guide represents one of the most extensive apps of its kind available in Australia, encompassing 92% of the seafood market by volume, including wild-caught fisheries, aquaculture products, and imported species.

The application features a straightforward traffic light system to assess the sustainability of various seafood options: Green indicates a 'Better Choice,' Amber suggests 'Eat Less,' and Red advises to 'Say No.' Such a rating system facilitates quick and informed decisions at the point of purchase.

Developed by the Australian Marine Conservation Society (AMCS), a leading non-profit organization dedicated to marine environmental preservation, this guide responds to increasing public concern over issues such as overfishing, fish farming practices, and their impacts on marine ecosystems.
