The Truth About Tuna

The industrial tuna fishing industry is full of secrets covering animal entanglements, environmental damage, and human rights abuses - but - there is another way. Ancient, traditional methods of tuna fishing which catch fish using one hook, one line, one fish at a time are a sustainable alternative and are available to you if you know where to look. It's up to us as consumers to demand a better future for tuna.
