Whole Foods might be on the right track: http://www.thestate.com/2010/09/13/1463327/whole-foods-to-use-seafood-environmental.html

Interesting. But I'm surprised that WF would even buy, and display, seafood with a red rating.

From Whole Foods. And they explain why they're still selling some of the red seafood.

In other good news, Greenpeace's write-in campaign has encouraged Trader Joe's to overhaul their fish-buying practices. TJ's used to be pretty much all "red-rated" seafood; I seldom bought fish there for that reason. They're now switching suppliers to more sustainable suppliers.
