Implementing catch shares in U.S. fisheries resulted in one of the greatest conservation home-runs in American history, and proof of what’s possible when solutions are built with the communities they affect.

If you know me, you know I’ve always loved seafood. After more than two decades working to protect our oceans, it’s amazing to see how far we’ve come: Now, I can order Pacific groundfish or red snapper and know it’s part of a success story.

Today, chefs are part of the lineup helping carry that progress forward. They’re the bridge between docks and dinner plates, shaping demand for responsibly harvested seafood, which is often the local, abundant catch from right here in the U.S.

From opposite sides of the table to true collaboration (and even friendship!). Forever grateful for your partnership, Buddy—and the opportunity to make real change together.
An environmentalist and a fisherman walk into a bar—and walk out as allies. On NPR’s Sea Change, our @AVLeland and Buddy Guindon share how they came to be powerful partners for our ocean and the communities that depend on it. Catch the full story: bit.ly/43fXPPd

First the high-seas treaty, now Motion 035—global ocean governance is working with the science. In encouraging momentum for ocean health, this vote recognizes the need to safeguard the mesopelagic until we fully understand its role in climate and ecosystem resilience.
A victory for the ocean! šŸŒŠšŸ‘šŸ½ The @IUCN took action to protect the mesopelagic zone—one of the most important yet least understood parts of our planet. Following the adoption of the high-seas treaty, this win adds to the global momentum to safeguard our ocean.
