Guest guest Posted September 13, 2007 Report Share Posted September 13, 2007 *** Permission to Cross-post Widely *** Dear Activists & Consumers: The World Society for the Protection of Animals states: "The Norwegian Foreign Ministry takes pleasure in reporting that they get hardly any international criticism for their whaling." WE MUST DO OUR BEST TO PROVE THE NORWEGIAN OFFICIALS WRONG!! Did you know that Norway is second ONLY to Japan in killing the largest number of whales, worldwide? Norway is also responsible for 80% of the annual--savage--Canadian Harp seal slaughter, which has butchered 1.25 million babies in just the last 3 years, alone--and many millions more over several decades. Norway's fisheries' policies are causing massive destruction to our marine mammals, far outside the realm of its borders! Norway exports seafood to 150 different countries; and as one of the TOP seafood-exporting nations, is heavily dependent on this industry for its economy. *** Please ask family and friends to boycott ALL seafood! Purchasing these "products" has a direct connection to the continued perpetuation of marine mammal slaughter around the planet! *** To learn more please visit: BUYING SEAFOOD = DEATH TO MARINE MAMMALS http://whales.greenpeace.org/campaign/7069 THE 2 MOST EFFECTIVE STEPS TO PERMANENTLY HALTING NORWAY'S CETACEAN / SEAL SLAUGHTER: 1) Stop purchasing ALL seafood. 2) Email those companies, officials and organizations directly involved in the slaughter; inform them you will be BOYCOTTING NORWAY and asking friends, relatives and others to dump seafood from their diets.
