Erin above doesn’t seem to understand what this is all about. To the others, write to the US Fish & Wildlife Service Law Enforcement Division @ POB 9, Sherwood, OR, 97140-0009

If this was such an endangered fish, it would in fact be cracked down on…and it would be illegal to sell/consume. It tells me that once again greenpeace is going over the top. It isnt the first time they have done so. I am not saying i am in favour of nobu, i have never been there, but i do know what tactics greenpeace uses…not all of which are legal in itself…its rather like the pot calling the kettle black. it is like saying ok deniro is doing something illegal, while greenpeace takes its boats and rams other boats, or damages crab/lobster cages, etc…for things that are not even on the endangered list…but it is still illegal to damage property…but is it ok for them to do so??? greenpeace is the least believeable and most hypocritical of any of the activist groups. I dont believe anything they publish

Robert De Niro, Nobu and ordinary sushi lovers and chefs won’t have to wonder what sushi is OK to eat and what comes from seafood caught or farmed in ways that harm the oceans. On October 22, the Monterey Bay Aquarium’s Seafood Watch program, along with the folks at Blue Ocean Institute and Environmental Defense Fund, will release consumer pocket guides to sustainable sushi so we can all make ocean-friendly choices. Check it out at http://www.seafoodwatch.org, http://www.blueocean.org and http://www.edf.org. — Ken Peterson, Monterey Bay Aquarium

I know a few of the snobby hipsters that go there just to go to a swank place and belive you me…the trendy people DON’T CARE!!! In a sick way, it makes it MORE worth it to them! I told one of my coworkers (one who goes there) that he shouldn’t cause of this and he goes “That sounds good! I may order that next time”

To the rich, stuck up and pretentious….it’s all a big joke.

This coming from an activist! lol.

It SHOULD be illegal!! I think i’m going to start looking into that and writing some letters.

And protests are always good anyway.

Farming the fish is no better, why don’t they farm them and put them back in the wild if your gonna make the effort?!

i say people stand outside and boycott. the hipsters who go there (whether truly hip or not) won’t want to break the picket line. Snobu will quickly take it off the menu then. Man I HATE that crappy food restaurant the more I think about it. I wish I’d never gone to either location.

If you have money, prestige and fame you are above laws… It’s like that in the US and in the rest of the world!

It has always been, it is and will always be like that unless the ‘little’ people rebel against the system.

Enough with those few humans who think they own the natural resources which belong to every living creature on earth!

This planet needs a quick and dramatic change. Things won’t last much longer… Take a look around! Everything is falling apart – environment, species, economy, hope and ultimately the future of us all!

If the fish is on the endangered species list why isn’t illegal for them to be serving it? The chefs there need to have enough respect for the fish that they claim to love so much to at least not eat them into oblivion!
