What’s one of the most climate-friendly protein sources? Seafood. 👀🐟🌍
Responsible seafood is actually one of the lowest-carbon protein options out there.

Here’s why:
• Seafood often has a lower carbon footprint than land-based proteins
• Farmed shellfish and many wild-caught species are among the most climate-friendly options
• Responsible aquaculture is reducing emissions through sustainable feed and energy-efficient farms
• Feed is a major factor, and the industry is actively working to optimize and improve it

Choosing certified seafood helps support lower-carbon food systems – without sacrificing nutrition or taste.
