- Set science-based targets in accordance with the Business Ambition for 1.5°C.
- We submitted our targets for validation in December 2022 but SBTi approval is pending.
Implement monitoring systems for all sourced fish (wild and farmed), so that all stocks can be traced back to source.
What we are doing:
- 100% of the fish we buy is traceable back to source (fishery, species, and vessel).
