Stop the needless slaughter of Dolphins

Stop the needless slaughter of Dolphins

The Issue

Every year in the heart of the European Union during November, the inhabitants of the Faroe Islands go to sea to teach their sons to kill.
The objective of this millennium tradition, aimed to make men out of boys, is to kill as many Dolphins as possible…….
Yes that’s right…….    Kill Dolphins – as many as 1500 every year.
This kind of activity is absolutely unacceptable in the 21st century.

The policy of European Union has always been to promote humane actions towards the environment and animals. We therefore ask you to oppose this activity and use your powers to make it unlawful for Dolphins to be slaughtered in this way.

john stackPetition StarterI am an author, adventurist and activist. I have travelled in 44 countries from the high mountains of Peru, the Karakoram highway and the Hindu Kush, to the deserts of Australia, Africa and China. From diving in the Atlantic, Indian, Mediterranean and Pacific Oceans to ascending previously unclimbed peaks high up within the Arctic circle of Northern Greenland and canoeing Canadian rivers in the wild north of the Yukon. I am always searching for new interests and new ideas. My life mantra is now: Live every day as if you will die tomorrow, Learn every day as if you will live forever. When not travelling I live in Edinburgh, Scotland, with my wife Alison; I have two children. I am passionately against human trafficking and slavery. I have completed my first novel on the subject, SVETNA which is published by Eloquent Books. You can find out more on my website <a href="http://www.svetna.com">www.svetna.com</a>
