What we need

Contacting restaurants to ask about their sustainable seafood provision
Making enquiries about the origins of seafood found in Hong Kong's restaurants

Background

We all love to eat seafood in Hong Kong - but have you ever considered where your seafood comes from? More than 90% of the world's oceans are already considered over- or fully- exploited. As a city with one of the highest per capita seafood consumption in the world, our choice as consumers can make a real impact on the survival of marine species."Sustainable seafood" provides an alternative for seafood-lovers to continue enjoying what they love, without further endangering marine animals that are already threatened with extinction. In this project, we will build a database of all the restaurants where you can find and enjoy sustainable seafood in Hong Kong. Help us build this database to give conscious consumers the option to eat sustainably!
