SustainabilityOcean Beauty Seafoods believes that seafood sustainability programs are valid only to the extent that they are measured against internationally recognized scientific standards. The application of these standards must be through a transparent public process that considers the impact of sustainability policies on human communities and does not add unnecessary costs. This is the basis of Ocean Beauty’s sustainability policy. It can be stated as adhering to the following six principles:
- Internationally recognized standards are the only acceptable basis of sustainability efforts.
- Peer‐reviewed science is central to all meaningful standards.
- Sustainability efforts must be measurable against those standards.
- Policy management must be public and transparent.
- Human community welfare must be included in all sustainability policies.
- Incremental costs specific to sustainability efforts should be borne only when absolutely necessary to implement a program consistent with the above five principles.
Ocean Beauty supports all sustainability efforts that are consistent with these six principles.
