President Obama Keep Your Promise to the Whales

http://www.whalevideo.com President Obama promised that commercial whaling by any nation was unacceptable. His administration is now supporting a proposal that will allow commercial whaling to resume for the first time in decades.

Let President Obama know that millions of people around the world disagree with this new policy.

Please take two minutes to send an e-letter to him at the White House. The URL to visit is at the end of the video.

These wonderful creatures may simply not threatened with extinction. The do to me totally suffering, really! (A loose translation of the German comment below)

An update to this was requested: The IWC meeting brought more bad news for the whales, especially the humpbacks in the North Atlantic. Greenland has been given permission to add nine humpback whales to the list of whales that can be legally killed for the next several years.

Is there an update here? or is this just another reason that I am ashamed of what is going on...with all the billions of fish that people could profit from, they choose to torture and kill the very few remaining whales.......

Thanks so much for this. This is how we should be observing these wonders of the sea. Not through graphic footage of harpooning and slipways. Whaling is cruel and barbaric and must be stopped.

This is a very important message. The future of whales is at stake, and we need to get our appeal to the President. Please join in the letter-writing so we can still see whales like these beautiful creatures, protected in their ocean habitat as part of the common heritage of all humankind.
