        How does that say “killing tuna is good for the environment”?

        Isn’t it kinda obvious it’s a comparison to other tuna? Best for the environment would be to kill yourself and not eat anything.

        That’s quite a wild difference from claiming killing tuna saves the environment.

        This is saying they only use farmed tuna from sustainable sources, instead of just fishing them from the wild and reducing native populations, as well as not using drugs, GMOs, or synthetic dyes with those farmed fish.
