Paul Watson is the founder of the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society and an early member of Greenpeace. Over the last few years, Paul has become extremely critical of Greenpeace in the press and at his website. The information below is provided as a service to our supporters to get a few facts out on the table about Paul's history with Greenpeace and the nature of our disagreements. We hope it clears up any misunderstandings.

Getting seafood from a sustainable fishery can be a complicated process. We need to consider the direct impacts on the marine environment as well as the wider environment (with particular regard to global warming) and on local communities.

There are some fish that we all should just say NO to eating. They are in serious trouble of total collapse. We should give them a break, leave them alone and let them recover.

Destructive fishing practices and overfishing are among the most significant threats facing our oceans today. Fish caught by damaging methods make their way into our supermarkets and oceans pay the price.

Greenpeace is calling on U.S. supermarkets to help our oceans by making the seafood market sustainable.

Thank You for taking action

Bycatch

Thu, 17 Jan 2008 22:53:38 GMT

When a fishing net or hook is tossed into the ocean – the catch often contains much more than the fishermen intended. Collectively, all marine life unintentionally caught while fishing for other species is called bycatch. Sadly, many ocean critters like sea turtles and dolphins are helpless victims of bycatch along with corals, sponges, and a variety of other marine plants and animals.

Pirate Fishing

Thu, 17 Jan 2008 22:44:39 GMT

Armed and masked, scouring the oceans, stealing food from hungry families – modern day pirates are a far cry from the glamor of Hollywood movies. But they are a multi billion-dollar reality for many communities that can least afford to be robbed. Pirate fishing – known by its less colorful name: illegal, unreported and unregulated (IUU) fishing – is the scourge of the oceans. It leaves communities without much needed food and income and the marine environment smashed and empty. In 2001 Greenpeace estimated there were at least 1,300 industrial scale pirate fishing ships at sea.
