Press Release: "Sustainable" Fish from Major Consumer Brands Linked to Arctic Destruction

Greenpeace hands over a report on the investigation on destructive fishing in the Arctic to delegates from the fishing industry and the Norwegian Minister of Fishery at the North Atlantic Seafood Forum Conference in Bergen.

Greenpeace is calling on fishing companies to stop fishing in the northern Barents Sea and the waters around Svalbard, and for retailers, food brands and processors to no longer use suppliers that engage in destructive fishing in these waters. Greenpeace is also calling on the Norwegian government to create a ‘Marine Protected Area’ in the northern Barents Sea and the waters around Svalbard.
