Hudson Canyon, located one hundred miles off New York City, is rich with marine life including whales, sharks, and sea turtles. The Wildlife Conservation Society advocates for its designation as a National Marine Sanctuary to shield it from oil and gas mining. This initiative aims to preserve endangered species and ensure the health of fish populations vital for local seafood markets. To promote awareness, a campaign was launched featuring petitions printed on butcher paper at fish markets, utilizing Japanese gyotaku printing to create designs of local marine life.
We're protecting the species out there, we're protecting their health, but we're also protecting the economic viability of our waters.
What better way to get the actual cause, actual information, and actual petition into people's hands . . . than at the moment you are consuming the very thing that is being threatened?
