IWPO End Whaling Forever!

Target:

10000000

Sponsored by:

International Whale Protection Organisation

WHO ARE WE?

The IWPO already represents more than 80 groups with over 240,000 combined members forming a united front against whaling.

We are the people of the international community,
And we will defend the oceans
For they are a common heritage of all mankind.

We are people working to fix a problem on a planet filled with problems.
An alliance of the motivated working to protect whales and dolphins from humans who seek to kill them.

We are people. Lots and lots of people.
People from anti-whaling websites, channels and groups united as friends for a good cause.
People are behind the FAQS, links, pictures, videos, websites, forums and groups.
A lot of people and we work as a team to amplify and compliment the efforts of others working towards the same goal.
We use the IWPO for spreading news with ease to hundreds of thousands of eyes and ears.
It is part of a co-ordinated effort to keep a spotlight upon the whalers.

WHY ARE WE HERE?

Our members are concerned about the killing of whales and dolphins and motivated to do something about it.
We invest our time, creativity and money, some even risk their lives, to bring an end to this blot upon humanity.
The whales are roaming the world's oceans and belong to all countries and people.
Unless a stand is made en masse the killing will continue.

We have unknown populations of protected animals migrating accross oceans and they are being indescriminately killed so that a wealthy few and their pets can eat an exotic meat.
It has to end, and we are here to make that happen as soon as possible.

WHY SHOULD YOU JOIN US?

Because we are going to end whaling and we need your help to do it!

We support action against whalers through the courts, people power, IWC, education, diplomatic pressure, the media, boycotts, protests and direct non-violent action.
Using the internet, we help co-ordinate consumers and citizens.
Small actions multiplied by lots of people equals big changes.

The people of the world will stop whaling and the few who would attempt to stand in the way of this forgone conclusion are merely wasting their effort.
This is just the begining, join us and be part of the end.

CAN I SPEAK TO THE LEADER OF THE IWPO?

There is no leader :)
Some of our members are louder than others.
But they lead the IWPO just as much as our quieter members.
The IWPO is not a person, or a group of persons, its a single collective united for a goal.
We shall proceed to expel whalers and their fans from the internet and systematically dismantle whaling industries no matter the country that shelters them.
The IWPO encourages its members to make their stands against the cult of whaling in whatever way they can.
All of us are leaders, all of us are followers and we can all do things to help the collective.
Our weapons against whaling are reason, evidence, argument, consumer education and free speech.
We shall never use direct violence upon the whalers, for that is not the way this works.
The violent shall be weeded out and discarded. We do not need their help.
We are good people, but we are angry about the whaling and we will end it.
To those that underestimate us.... you haven't seen anything yet.

IWPO IN THE MEDIA?

FINAL MESSAGE TO THE WHALERS?

To all the whale and dolphin killers of the world,
You cannot hide in your countries from Green Peace, you cannot hide on the seas from Sea Shepherd and you cannot hide on the internet from the IWPO.
We are coming to shut you down and we come in numbers far greater than your own!
This is the IWPO!
And it exists only to stop you!

We the undersigned,
Oppose your whaling activity and will do our best using every legal method available to end it forever. We have chosen the "World Council of Whalers" (whaling@shaw.ca) as the target for this letter as we believe that all whaling is obselete and cruel.
Please read through the comments that have been left as we all have our reasons for signing. Thank you for taking the time to read this letter. We like whales, and we had to make our opposition to their killing known.

I hate whaling. It is a cruel and terrible act and should be stopped. Why continue whaling? Because they are cruel, mean people who have nothing better to do in their time. I have not seen the killings first hand but I have seen the sad photos. You should stop killing now! If you can't save the whales, then what is going to happen to mankind? Not being able to save the whales just proves that we won't be able to save anything else. SAVE THE WHALES, SAVE THE EARTH!

Since learning more about whaling and the fine details, whenever I buy products, I make sure that there is nothing to do with whales in it. I find it gross and cruel.

It's time for all this to stop. It's time for us to be good stewards of the oceans because the health of the oceans is critical to the health of all life on the planet. No more collaborating with the devil and giving the Japanese a pass on whaling and dolphin killing. Let's make it stop by cutting off all the money, in all forms from all sources, to Japan. If they want to do this, it must cost them dearly. If they want to participate in the global economy, it's time for them to stop stabbing us all in the back.

We must stop rewarding the criminals who are looting the oceans of the life that we must have to keep the oceans healthy for all of us.

Please stop whaling. I love so much of Japan's movies, music, and culture, but the whaling makes you look really bad to the rest of the world. I'll be rethinking my trip to Japan.

Japan should turn to whale watching instead of lame excuses such as tradition and research...they are selling what whale meat they don't use to China and Russia and who knows who else...whale watching cruises would probably bring more revenue in than whaling has ever brought in. Plus they would gain an appreciation for the whales

yes we boycott products from Japan.

Whales and dolphins are such beautiful gentle creatures. It absolutely sickens me that they are slaughtered!

I absolutely refuse to buy and products from or support any country that takes part in whaling.

With most whale species depleted already, it's crucial that this senseless, barbaric slaughter of majestic, intelligent creatures is banned completely! They already have enough struggles to face to survive nowadays as it is.

I'm boycotting any product from any country that allows and promotes cetacean slaughter.

How can so many people on this earth take for granted the beauty and intelligence of the mammals in the Ocean we call Whales and Dolphins. Someday we may not have any of them to show our children they will be the new generation of "Dinosaurs"...just something that once roamed the earth. More people should have an appreciation for these creatures and what kind of benefit they can and will have on mankind. When all the whales and dolphins are gone... THEN WHAT? How will your "culture" survive? What will you eat? what will you use for whatever they hell you use whales and dolphins for. NOTHING BECAUSE THERE WONT BE ANYMORE LEFT IF YOU KEEP ABUSING THE ENNVIRONMENT THAT WE KNOW AS EARTH!

YES i am boycotting all products... and have many friends and families who are doing the same...

Please take the time to write a few words about how you feel in regards to the whale and dolphin killing. It gives this petition a lot more power and

Are you boycotting products from countries that continue to whale?

I am truly disturbed by the slaughter of whales and dolphins around the globe and I feel strongly that all whaling has to end. We are robbing our oceans of marine life, slowly making them barren and dead. The oceans are the heart and lungs of the Earth, we need to protect them.

YES.

Whales are beautiful, mysterious and majestic creatures that have been endangered by careless whaling. They must be respected and allowed to live in peace, especially in the Arctic whale sanctuaries, but everywhere they roam. Dolphins are highly intelligent, compassionate creatures that trust us, help us and entertain us freely. We must protect them from accidental or intentional slaughter.

I will never buy products from countries that continue to whale.

I will not tolerate the actions of the Japanese "fishermen" who are taking it upon themselves to dictate what's best for the world as a whole. Killing in any form is murder, and I do not support it at all. Mass murder is being committed by these "researchers" and "fishermen" they need to be stopped and held responsible for their inhumane actions.

I have no plans to visit Japan or support Japanese companies until the whaling has ended.
