Marine Conservation Society
The Marine Conservation Society (MCS) is the UK national charity dedicated to protecting the marine environment and its wildlife. In addition to lobbying governments and educating the public on the plight of the seas, the conservation organization annually publishes its Good Beach Guide, which rates British beaches on the cleanliness and quality of their water. Marine Conservation Society created a dust-up in 2004 with the publication of its annual Good Fish Guide, which recommended that Brits stop eating such fish as cod and haddock, and switch to pollock and flounder, in order to ensure future availability of the species that are traditionally consumed in the UK's favorite fast food, fish and chips. MCS was formed in 1983.
