The oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico is a disaster for both human and nonhuman residents, but there may prove to be a silver lining. With the government’s recent announcement that fishing is banned in 19 percent of the Gulf, there’s no time like the present for Johnson Sea Products to convert its crab and oyster-processing facility to a faux-seafood packaging facility.

Johnson Sea Products could protect itself from shutdowns because of oil spills, red tides, and overfishing, and the switch would help the company tap into the rapidly growing market for vegan food. To sweeten salt up the deal, we’re even offering to cater a delicious faux-seafood meal for the employees so that they can see how great it is (and it’ll give the out-of-work employees a free meal too).

No need to wait Johnson Sea Products’ response. You can protect millions of turtles, dolphins, and other aquatic animals from being killed as “bycatch” by commercial fishers by going vegan.
