Every year, the World Wildlife Fund (WWF) releases its Fish Guide, which helps make sustainable choices for fish and shellfish. The guide places the fish in the categories of green light (good choice), yellow light (be careful), and red light (don’t do it).
When WWF now publishes the 2023 guide, it appears that Baltic herring, which previously received a yellow light, are now receiving a red light along with Baltic cod. Meanwhile, sprats in the Baltic Sea are now slipping from green light to yellow light.
– The delicate ecosystem of the Baltic Sea is dangerously imbalanced. It’s emergency mode and time to pull the handbrake. Large commercial food fish in the Baltic Sea such as cod, sturgeon and sprat are now at alarmingly low levels. Getting the oceans and their people back on track is critical to healthy marine ecosystems and a sustainable economy, says WWF Secretary-General Gustav Linde, in a commentary.
Cod in the Barents Sea and Norwegian Sea, which previously received a yellow light, now receive a red light. Likewise North Sea prawns from the Skagerrak, Kattegat and the Norwegian Channel. In the northeast Atlantic, mackerel and spring herring, common in our herring cans, turn from green to bright yellow. Among other things due to high fishing pressure and low biomass.
The most satisfying news in this year’s guide is that the newcomer has now been given the green light. It is a giant prawn grown in the United Kingdom, Germany, Austria and Switzerland that can be eaten with a clear conscience. It also appears brighter for sprats caught in drift trawls in the Skagerrak, Kattegat and the North Sea, which are switching from yellow light to green light due to decreased fishing mortality and increased abundance of spawning fish.
In the fish guide, WWF has mapped 95 species, of which 23 have been given the green light. Five species — shark, rockfish, Argentine red shrimp, and Swedish lobster — end up only at red lights.
