SHUT DOWN COMMERCIAL WHALING - HELP US KEEP UP THE PRESSURE!

shut it down

Dear Friend

WDCS needs your help to end Icelandic whaling.

WDCS has submitted a legal petition, backed by 19 organisations, calling on the United States government to impose trade sanctions on Iceland for its whaling and trade in whale products.

The good news is that the US, unlike other countries, can do this if it believes Iceland is undermining international conservation agreements. But to justify trade sanctions the government needs to show that it has public support. That’s where you come in. See below for how you can help.

Japanese stockpiles of whale meat are at an all-time high - 6,000 tons - yet the businessman behind fin whale hunting in Iceland still hopes to find buyers in Japan.

We want to put real pressure on Iceland via US trade sanctions.

Please send an email to the US Secrectaries of Commerce and Interior to urge them to take strong action against Iceland.

We have prepared an email for you – it will only take a few seconds of your time. click here to send.

When you've registered your protest, tell your friends. Share the link on Facebook, email your friends, help us spread the word.

Iceland’s whalers will kill more whales if they can get away with it.

We won't let them. Let’s SHUT DOWN commercial whaling.
