Ethical Fish Eating

Date June 26, 2009

I used to hate fish, but recently I’ve found myself coming around to it – slowly. I can now eat it with no problem, and some of the less fishy fish, I actually enjoy.
Having received Vefa’s Kitchen, an awesome looking Greek cookbook, for my birthday, I’ve decided that I need to start cooking and enjoying more seafood.

I know overfishing is a big problem, however, so I need to first learn which fish I can eat (and eventually learn which ones taste good in Southwestern Ohio).  To help, I just found these two great articles from the New York Times:

They are pretty good reads if you are interested in this.  I haven’t yet looked into the other websites they mention, but I may do a summary post soon.

What is your philosophy when buying fish or other seafood?  Do you worry about this stuff?  Do you know of other good articles on the subject?
