This World Tuna Day – a reminder to celebrate the hard work of millions of fishing communities in the Western Central Pacific Ocean for making it possible for tuna to be a regular part of people’s diet & important protein source in Australia & the world over.
With canned tuna sales in Australia exceeding $400 million in 2022, the impact of this household staple on global tuna stocks from overfishing is significant, according to @AnneGabrielOz , Program Director, Oceania for the Marine Stewardship Council, adding: “Many of us are confused by the multitude of environmental claims on tuna cans. Most tuna sold in Australia is not independently certified as sustainably caught, which is a major concern when our ocean faces extreme pressures from climate change and overfishing.”
