![Tesco climb to joint 5th in our sustainable seafood league table](../../files/images/oceans/sustainable_seafood/tesco_rank_150.gif) Tesco's decision to be somewhat more transparent with its new sourcing policies has revealed that the company is moving forward on sustainability issues with some success. At present, much of the policy is limited to the fresh and chilled pre-packed ranges, ignoring the frozen, ready-meal or tinned seafood, which is unfortunate as these ranges encompass the majority of the seafood sold.

Japan's 'research' whaling fleet set sail to the Antarctic on 13/11/04 to kill more whales in the name of 'science'. 2004 will be the 18th year of Japanese whale hunting, thinly disguised as 'scientific research'. In that time over 6,000 Antarctic Minke whales have been killed.
It has been claimed that the research is for the International Whaling Committee (IWC) but the IWC has said they do not need the data and has repeatedly asked that the programme be stopped. The waters surrounding the Antarctic were made into a whale sanctuary in 1994.

Conservation groups welcome Tesco PLC's announcement that it has decided to stop selling all cetacean (whale, dolphin and porpoise) products in its Japanese supermarkets. The decision follows a joint campaign by the Environmental Investigation Agency (EIA), WDCS (Whale and Dolphin Conservation Society) and Greenpeace.

GM activists boarding the MV Etoile Thirteen Greenpeace volunteers who stopped a shipment of genetically modified (GM) crops from entering the UK have had a charge dropped against them.
The charges alleged that our volunteers endangered the safety of the MV Etoile when they stopped it docking at Bristol to unload a cargo of GM crops in June. However, South Wales Magistrates Court decided that there was not enough evidence for a crown jury to consider the charge.

![chicken](../../files/images/migrated/MultimediaFiles/Live/Image/2112.jpg) Grampian, who produce 3.8 million chickens a week and provide some of the UK's top supermarkets with their own label chicken have announced that they will be feeding all of their poultry and pigs with non-GM soya by June 2001. This news follows hot on the heels of announcements by Tesco and Asda that poultry and pigs sold under their own labels will be non-GM fed from this summer.
Top turkey producer Bernard Matthews have also announced that they are to feed their turkeys non-GM feed.
