description

Please read ToR for full information.

The objectives of this report are:

-Present a comparison of the environmental and social footprint of the UK's top 10 consumed seafood species (by volume), with species with the lowest footprint (e.g., mussels, small pelagics, seaweed) and extrapolate the footprints if consumption levels were to double to meet the Eatwell Guide recommendations and under population increase projections for mid-2030.
-Present a comparison of the environmental and social footprint of seafood species with other animal proteins.
-Review the nutritional profile of seafood (fish, shellfish, seaweed) from wild-caught and farmed sources using the current top 10 species (by volume) consumed in the UK and lower footprint species. The nutritional profile will consider protein and nutrients that are often absent or harder to obtain from other dietary sources e.g., omega 3 fatty acids, selenium, magnesium, vitamins A, B, D, and K.
-Identify whether there is any nutritional benefit from swapping current seafood preferences to lower footprint species.
-Present a comparison of the nutritional value of seafood and other animal proteins and identify whether there is a nutritional benefit of swapping animal protein to seafood.
-Review of current UK seafood product portion sizes across all categories (fresh, frozen, ambient, ready to eat) to see whether they meet the Eatwell Guide recommendations (140g uncooked).
-Conduct a price comparison review to determine whether there are any cost saving opportunities to customers from choosing lower footprint seafood species that have a better nutritional value compared to current seafood preferences and other animal proteins.
-support advocacy asks to the UK seafood industry of improving environmental and social footprints to result in increased domestic consumption of UK seafood (more UK seafood on UK plates).
-Support advocacy asks to UK retailers and supply chain actors to increase seafood product portion sizes in line with the Eatwell Guide recommendations (140g uncooked).
