PORTSMOUTH, N.H. — Celebrate National Ocean Month in June and World Oceans Day on June 8 while supporting ocean health by trying one of two new grilled seafood recipes featuring Best Aquaculture Practices (BAP)-certified fish – just in time for the summer grilling season.

As part of its Sustained by Seafood campaign, BAP is sharing new recipes on its consumer website, including Grilled Mustard Salmon Kabobs and Grilled Shrimp Lettuce Wraps.

The campaign aims to educate consumers about the BAP eco-label and why BAP seafood is a responsible choice for the planet. BAP-certified producers are held to high standards for environmental responsibility, ensuring that they are contributing to, not detracting from, ocean health. They are also held to high standards for social accountability, animal health and welfare, and food safety.

BAP is administered by the Global Seafood Alliance. There are more than 3,000 BAP-certified producers worldwide.
