The use of the ocean by many industries has not sufficiently respected the multiple roles and complex biodiversity in the ocean, Cermaq recognizes in launching Sea the Solution. As research unfolds fact and casual relationships, we are better positioned to move from harm to harmony. And we must all take part.
Consumers seem to have embraced salmon as a convenient and healthy food for home preparation. The strong rise in home consumption of salmon was a response to the restrictions or close-down of restaurant and outdoor dining. Now as society opens up the retail sales remains high.
As salmon farmers, we have a great responsibility to contribute to a healthy ocean and cut our greenhouse gas emissions by 35% by 2030. More electric boats and facilities, renewable energy, climate-friendly transport and feed will be important measures.
The Ocean Panel has lancjed its report confirming the great potential for increased food production through aquaculture. Cermaq having engaged with the panel directly as Cermaq and also through SeaBOS and the Global Compact Ocean Platform, applauds the Ocean Panel. Cermaq is ready to deliver, supporting the achievement of the goals for sustainable development.
In a new report, mainstream sustainability indicators are linked to key activities to meet the overarching global challenges of climate action, ocean health, biodiversity, reducing the footprint of food production and creating shared value.

With a QR-code and blockchain technology, consumers can now get information in text and photos regarding where the salmon they are purchasing was farmed, what food it was fed, and other interesting information. Cermaq’s cooperation with Labeyrie secures traceability and transparency.
World Business Council for Sustainable development (WBCSD), EAT and 25 leading global companies join together to improve global food systems.
Global business and NGO leaders addressed critical elements related to poverty alleviation at the Global Forum 2016. More aquaculture is needed to create a more sustainable world for all.
Cermaq supports the ambition to create a healthy and sustainable global food system, and has entered into a partner agreement with EAT. As partner, Cermaq participates in EAT's activities and research projects and supports EAT financially.
