Council Fire was contracted by the Marine Stewardship Council, a London-based nonprofit dedicated to improving global fisheries practices. The company was hired to conduct a preassessment for five fisheries in the Mid-Atlantic region of the US. Council Fire's role involved gathering information, forming an advisory council, and making recommendations for operational improvements. They were involved in each phase of the project, which is ongoing. The Marine Stewardship Council has invested $60,000 in their services so far and is working to implement the suggested improvements.

In another project, the environmental nonprofit Oceans Program hired Council Fire to improve their work strategy in South America. The company provided strategy and consulting services, helped finalize strategy documents for fundraising and communication, advised on sustainable supply chains, and conducted a market study for fishing terminals worldwide. This study was crucial in determining the cost-benefit of building a new fishing terminal in Chile. The project, which cost between $40,000–$50,000, ran from June 2019 to June 2020.
