What’s the deal Costco? What are you hiding?

without comments

I just got this email from Change.org on something about Costco. 

Costco consistently robs the ocean of its scarcest resources and sells them to shoppers at wholesale prices. Worse, the store provides no labeling information about the sustainability of the fish it sells, preventing shoppers from making the choice to avoid buying threatened species.

In response, Greenpeace just launched the "Oh-No-Costco" campaign asking the store to implement an effective and transparent sustainable seafood policy and stop selling Red List species.

When you compare Costco to Wal-Mart they come out looking like angels. That however doesn't mean that they do everything right.
