Get up-to-date info on the best fish to eat in terms of over-fishing with sources like Monterey Bay Aquarium's Endangered Seafood Guide. World renowned chefs like Whitney Werner, owner of The Beach Club in Santa Monica, Calif., use this guide and others to make sure that they are serving customers the most ecologically responsible fish that they can find. When you cook for your family make sure that you're not serving up an endangered species that has been over-fished in order to please customers. With so many options out there you can pick a fish that is both safe to consume and easy-on-the-planet.

The site outlines your best seafood choices and then discusses good alternatives and what to avoid. It also tells you where the fish are caught and how they are caught. You can learn an abundance of information about fishing practices from sites like these and educate yourself on how to be an eco-friendly fish lover. Answer all your concerns about health advisories in terms of which fish are highest in mercury and which fish you can eat pretty regularly without enduring health scares.
