Pledge to Support Supermarkets that Care about Your Health

Oceana urges shoppers to support companies that care about their customers' health.  A number of major retailers care enough to post the FDA mercury advice at their seafood counters and are on Oceana's Green List.  Yet many grocery companies still are not taking the simple step of posting the mercury advice at their seafood counters. 

We need to let them know this is important and that we support companies that watch out for shoppers' best interest.  So take the pledge to support Green List stores! 

Tell the FDA to Warn Consumers

The FDA and EPA have issued an advisory directing women of child-bearing age and children to avoid or limit consumption of certain fish because of high levels of mercury. Unfortunately, this warning is not well-publicized.

Sign our open letter to FDA Commissioner Dr. Andrew C. von Eschenbach today and tell him that consumers need more information about the risks posed by mercury contamination in seafood, not less!
