Oppose Whaling: Sign the Petition, Make a Phone Call, Send a Fax

Published February 12, 2009 @ 06:45AM PT

You may recall that on Monday, I posted on the possibility that the United States is gearing up to support commercial whaling. Change.org team member Mike has kindly created a petition calling on President Obama and the Secretary of Commerce to reverse course. Read this post for more on this topic. Also, in addition to signing the petition, please consider calling and/or faxing to register your opinion, especially in the case of Secretary of State Hillary Clinton (to whom the e-mail petition is not able to be sent at this time). All contact information is available on the page for the petition: Stop the U.S. from Conspiring to Overturn the Commercial Whaling Ban

    I Strongly Oppose this most Horrific act known as Whaling. I also oppose the act of Shark fining.
    Human Beings must start to act in a non violent way to move forward as a peaceful society. We must respect all of GOD"s Creatures, Man, Woman, Child, and those of the animal kingdom.

    I'd love to see the day when humans realize that the animals, the land, the Earth, is not here for us to destroy but to care for.

    Please, stop the whaling. I am opposed to the slaughter of such a beautiful friend of this planet. They are intelligent animals and deserve all of the protection that we can provide. When will we learn that all of us are members of this Earth and that we are all connected. Hopefully, before we are all extinct.
