This standard aims to protect from overfishing wild seaweeds, which serve not only as a crop but also as a habitat for hundreds of other ocean species.<\/p>\n<p>Seaweeds are an important raw material for many industries: food, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, fertilizers and animal feed. Although more than 95 percent of global seaweed production is farmed, there are concerns over wild seaweed harvest. Indeed, their high demand may bring over-harvesting and loss of ecosystems, a natural habitat for the diverse marine life. Several studies have however highlighted how small scale seaweed farming can provide social and economic benefits to local communities and at the same time have a positive impact in terms of carbon footprint.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Nowadays, China, Indonesia and the Philippines lead global seaweed production, which is approximately 21 million metric tons a year.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">\n<p>The core criteria of the Friend of the Sea sustainable seaweed certification are:<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 No impact on critical habitat<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Water monitoring<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Chemicals and hazardous substances<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Energy management<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Social accountability<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Traceability<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSeaweeds are an important component of the oceans and deserve more attention and protection,\u201d says\u00a0<strong>Paolo Bray<\/strong>, Director and Founder of Friend of the Sea. \u201cWe are convinced that a sustainable production of seaweed will help reduce the impact on the marine environment.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>MORE INFORMATION<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Friend of the Sea<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Friend of the Sea is an international certification program for products from sustainable fisheries and aquaculture.
