Dear Tom,

I'm pleased to invite you to a special, free event, "Little Fish, Big Deal," at the Aquarium of the Bay in San Francisco on Oct. 27 at 6:15 p.m.

On the heels of a pivotal victory protecting several species of forage fish in federal Pacific Ocean waters, Pew and partner groups will host a public forum in San Francisco. The event, featuring world-renowned oceanographer and explorer Sylvia Earle, will explore the issues facing forage fish and the marine life and coastal communities that depend on them.

Check out our event page to register and learn more.

Hope to see you in San Francisco!

Northern anchovies provide food for over 54 species off the West Coast, including seabirds, larger fish such as salmon and tuna, and marine mammals like whales and sea lions. But these important animals are in trouble. Let the Pacific Fishery Management Council know you support updating how these fish are managed.
