Earlier this spring at the Women in Conservation luncheon, the National Audubon Society honored Sylvia Earle with a Rachel Carson Award. As GOOD Magazine recounted, in her speech, “she spoke about one thing we can all do to help protect our ravaged oceans: Stop. Eating. Fish.”

Now GOOD has posted a beautiful transparency on the impact fish consumption has had on our oceans in the past 50 years. The statistics are staggering.

For those who do not want to give up fish altogether, here is a great resource for making sustainable seafood choices.

You can find GOOD’s transparencies archive available on Flickr. (via)
