Abstract

The Marine Stewardship Council (MSC) is trying to tackle an issue of global concern: the sustainable use of fishery resources for the benefit of current and future generations. As part of the process of setting up the MSC, ‘Principles and Criteria’ are being established and developed for sustainable fishing. These will eventually provide the logic for a certifying scheme that will be used to qualify (or disqualify) fisheries products for the MSC ecolabel. This aspect of the MSC has the potential to make a valuable contribution to the whole sustainability debate, and is to be welcomed.
