What can people do to protect themselves?
The easiest way to protect your family is to be an informed consumer. Most importantly, read the label to see if the tuna was caught in a dolphin-safe manner and where the tuna comes from. Also, limiting your family’s light tuna consumption as our report recommends will help protect them. In the long term, people can contact their congressmen to ask them to encourage the government to conduct further tests that includes imported light canned tuna. New testing is critical to making sure that the FDA and EPA are providing consumers with the most up-to-date and accurate information. Get more consumer advice.
