What is the most effective intervention for fish? Is anyone working on it? How many organizations are working on change for fish right now? What do we expect to achieve for fish in the next 2-3 years?
I’m not sure what the most effective intervention for fish is—I think it’s mostly too early to say. But here’s a non-exhaustive list of some promising approaches, with an example of one group working on each:
UK corporate and policy reforms: Compassion in World Farming
European corporate reform: Albert Schweitzer Foundation
European legislative reform: Eurogroup for Animals
Undercover investigations: Essere Animali
Working with producers: Fish Welfare Initiative
Engaging certifiers: Aquatic Animal Alliance
Researching higher welfare methods: Humane Slaughter Association
I’m optimistic that in the next 2-3 years we can see some more corporate fish welfare policies and a number of new fish welfare standards from fish farming sustainability certifiers. I’m also hopeful that we’ll see the first steps toward EU policy reform, though binding regulations will likely take longer.
