Did you know that ocean fishing is the #1 cause of marine biodiversity loss and a major contributor to plastic pollution? Every year, overfishing depletes our oceans, leaving marine species endangered and ecosystems destroyed. Here’s the good news: you and your pup can help restore biodiversity by making a sustainable swap to Silver carp treats. 

The Challenges Facing Marine Biodiversity

Overfishing: Ocean fishing is the leading cause of marine biodiversity loss, and at least 1/3 of ocean fish species are overfished. Species like salmon and tuna are often overfished, putting marine ecosystems in danger. 

By switching to Silver carp treats, you not only alleviate pressure on these species, but you also help to restore biodiversity to U.S. waterways by removing overpopulated Silver carp.

Bycatch & Ocean Plastic: Discarded fishing nets are the deadliest type of ocean plastic, trapping and killing millions of marine animals like sharks and sea turtles every year.

Bottom Trawling & Carbon Emissions: Bottom trawling is a destructive fishing practice that destroys the ocean floor and releases an estimated 370 million metric tons of CO2 annually. 

Chippin’s Silver carp fisherfolk will never use bottom trawling. This helps to preserve waterway integrity and protect natural habitats.

Human Rights: Ocean fishing poses a massive human rights risk, with thousands of workers exploited on open seas. It is estimated that at least 128,000 people are trapped in forced labor in the fishing industry.
