Great Turtle Race Seafood Pledge!
Avoiding Tuna, Swordfish and Shrimp during The Great Turtle Race II is a simple way you can be part of the solution! After surviving the asteroid that killed the dinosaurs, rare leatherbacks are now endangered. The number of sea turtles captured each year--estimated at 250,000--by swordfish, tuna, and shrimp boats is staggering.
Leatherback Sea Turtles: 100,000,000 years old, only 10 years left? I understand that what I put on my dinner plate affects sea turtles. I want to discourage harmful fishing practices by choosing seafood that is less detrimental to the welfare of endangered sea turtles. Therefore, I pledge not to eat tuna, swordfish, or shrimp during the Great Turtle Race II!
