"McDonald's Filet-O-Fish, Fish McBites going all-sustainable"

There are 14,000 McDonald's chains nationwide. One can only imagine how many hundreds of thousands of people enter each store, daily. Customers consume the unhealthy, fast foods from these restaurants without even caring if it is healthy for them or not. However, if the customers are not caring what if the chain itself started caring? McDonald's decided to update their seafood into Alaskan Pollack fished in the wild. They are willing to pay the Marine Stewardship Council yearly, in order to have the permission to stamp their ecolabel onto their product packaging. "The Marine Stewardship Council awards the label to seafood products that meet its standards on fish stock health, fishery impact on the surrounding ecosystem and fishery management system" (Hsu). Since McDonald's is working this hard in order to have a label like this onto its seafood products, can it be for the public or for their own business? Hopefully it is for the public, because healthy and delicious calls for more and more customers.
