About this project
The Menhaden Project is a WhyTrashEarth initiative focused on clear, accessible information about menhaden and their ecological role.
Why this project was created
Menhaden are often discussed in technical, regional, or industry-specific contexts. For many people, that makes the subject difficult to approach.
This project exists to provide a calm, understandable starting point for anyone who wants to learn what menhaden are and why they matter.
What this site aims to do
- Explain what menhaden are
- Explain their role in marine food webs
- Present the topic in a neutral and readable format
- Grow into a clearer public resource over time
What this site is not
This site is not designed to overwhelm readers with data, pressure, or noise.
The goal is clarity, structure, and credible information— allowing readers to form their own understanding.
