Iceland - Stop Whaling Now

Iceland has killed more than 150 whales since May of 2009, including at least 93 endangered fin whales. Despite the moratorium on commercial whaling, and the ban on international trade in whale products, Iceland has continues to defy world opinion in order to gain a quick profit from killing these magnificent animals.

We need your help to help us in this fight to save Iceland's fins and minkes from the whalers harpoons, and to ensure that whale watching continues to bring vital revenue to Iceland's floundering economy.

Please send an email to the Icelandic Prime Minister today.

Iceland's response to our criticism can be seen here at Andrew C Revkins column at the New York Times.
