在電視上看到BBC製作的紀錄片”South Pacific南太平洋”的第六集”Fragile Paradise脆弱的天堂”,這集主題是關於大企業補魚船使用破壞性捕魚法(使用人工集魚器的圍網魚船捕魚),不但一併捕獲目標黃鰭鮪魚的幼魚,更一網打盡所有其它海洋生物,像是海龜、海豚、鯨魚、鯨鯊、鯊魚、魟魚…..對海洋生態造成毀滅性的破壞!!!
此外,破壞性捕魚法由於收網耗時,鮪魚早在海底網中時因為空間不足死亡並產生一種不好的成份 (聽不懂是產生了什麼成份,請生物專家幫忙解答 ^^),對人類食用並無營養價值。
所以吃鮪魚時記得先確認其捕獲方式是否為利用魚杆和魚線的一支釣(pole&line),才是可以保護海洋的可持續捕魚法(Sustainable fishing)

Greenpeace台灣的這篇文章對破壞性捕魚有詳盡的說明和影片
這篇有點血腥殘忍,請小心觀看~~~
Greenpeace UK的這篇Q&A解答如何正確選擇讓海洋可持續發展的海鮮(sustainable seafood)
原來Mark&Spencer致力提供sustainable seafood,大家來去M&S買魚吧!
應該避免的海鮮也太多了吧!不過M&S和Waitrose的Cod(鱈魚)是ok的唷,而且好吃的Mackerel(鯖魚)也不在應避免的名單上唷!
Q: What seafood should I avoid?
A: Greenpeace have identified a list of species which are under particular pressure. We are asking supermarkets to stop selling these species, a process that concerned consumers can help influence further by avoiding these species when they buy fish. The species are:
Atlantic cod (except cod from Marks & Spencer and Waitrose, and line-caught Icelandic)
Plaice
Tuna, including Albacore, Bigeye and Bluefin (but excluding Skipjack)
Tropical prawns (wild and farmed)
Haddock (except line-caught Icelandic)
European Hake
Atlantic Halibut
Monkfish
Atlantic salmon (wild and farmed)
Swordfish
Marlin
Sharks (including dog fish and huss)
Skates and rays.
