GLOBAL PETITION FOR MARINE PROTECTED AREAS!!

  • by: Hazel
  • recipient: Governments of the world and the appropiate international conservation agreements.

Please join our campaign for the creation of safe homes for whales and dolphins, by signing the petition below.

The campaign calls for 12 large, highly protected safe havens for whales and dolphins, called Marine Protected Areas, by 2012.

The survival of whales and dolphins – and the future of the world’s oceans – depends upon taking action now!

Please add your name to the petition and tell your friends and family about our campaign.

Every day whales and dolphins face being entangled in fishing nets, poisoned by chemicals, harassed, hunted, starved and evicted from where they feed, breed and take shelter. Yet few of the areas on which even the most endangered populations depend for survival are protected. 

These long-lived, social mammals need safe homes in the sea – protected places where they can raise their families, find food, rest and play. 

The need for large, highly protected safe havens is urgent.

I, the undersigned, demand that the leaders of my government, the governments of the world and the appropriate international conservation agreements work together to create a global network of marine protected areas (MPAs) for whales and dolphins, and other marine life and ecosystems.
