Very disturbing stories are now coming to light from the Pacific fishing industry Many are working for low pay and some no pay.Many fishermen are now being forced to work under these conditions.
Thai Union, has recently become embroiled in scandals and human rights abuses throughout its seafood supply chains. they are CHICKEN OF THE SEA!!
They are one of the US, largest fisheries and they still use destructive fishing methods that needlessly kill thousands of sharks, turtles, and other ocean creatures every year. And Chicken of the Sea's parent company Thai Union, was recently linked to horrific scandals and human rights abuses throughout its seafood supply chains. I'm standing up for our oceans and workers rights! I just sent a message to Chicken of the Sea telling them to clean up its dirty tuna and ensure that the company’s tuna is truly sustainable and fresh!
. Will you join me? You can take action right here: Mahalo, Tell the CEO to set up a policy that protects workers AND our oceans today!
Not only are they facing terrible scandals and people abuse, but overfishing, illegal shark finning, and other environmental crimes that often happen on loosely-regulated industrial fishing boats. Chicken of the Sea says it is committed to sustainability, but actions speak louder than words. Their ships are still engaging and using destructive fishing methods that needlessly kill thousands of sharks, turtles, and other ocean creatures every year.
A recent Greenpeace tour of the Pacific found their crews overworked and under-paid, barely-livable crew quarters, and even fishermen facing fines for using toilets or drinking bottled water.
As I have said before petitions work and when thousands of us make alot of big waves, our voices are heard throughout all nations. We were heard and Shell abandon their drilling in the Arctic. Petitions worked and they convinced many major seafood buyers to watch, learn and listen, like Trader Joe's, Costco and many more have decided to listen to our voice.
