Please send a letter or an email or make a call to President Obama.
Urge him to:

  • Reform the US Delegation to the International Whale Commission.
  • Stop the negotiations for a whaling deal with Japan.
  • Adhere to long-standing US policy of maintaining the commercial whaling moratorium. This should include stopping negotiations on allowing commercial whaling under a guise of “cultural” whaling or some other euphemism.
  • Commit to using the US’ considerable political, economic and diplomatic resources to end the killing of whales and dolphins for commercial purposes NOW.
