No To Nobu, Save the Bluefin Tuna Celebs Like Sting say According to The Independent

In his June 5, 2009 piece in The Independent, Celebrity diners say no to Nobu, Martin Hickman writes:

Protesting actors, pop stars, models and socialites have started a celebrity backlash against the A-list's favourite restaurant Nobu for selling an endangered fish.Sienna Miller, Charlize Theron, Jemima Khan, Sting and his film producer wife Trudie Styler are among 31 signatories of a letter to the Japanese chef Nobu Matsuhisa appealing for him to remove bluefin tuna from his global restaurant empire so that they can "dine with a clear conscience".

Seems like the whole brouhaha started, the articles states after "Kate Goldsmith, the Rothschild heiress, gathered support for the letter after she and her husband Ben Goldsmith watched a preview of a film about overfishing, The End of the Line."

The documentary whose trailer is shown above is set to be released in June 2009.

Are we really running out of fish?
