Whale's are magnificent creatures, and should be marveled and not slaughtered.

Increase tourism of watching the whales. It would bring more money than killing them to eat.

Whaling is a brutal and obsolete remnant of primative culture. It is now completely unnecessary, and completely ugly. Please, withhold your whaling permits.

It is time to give up this primitive practice and move on to creating products from abundant and renewable materials.

I would spend money to travel to whale watch (and have done so) but will not visit a nation that supports or participates in killing whales. Please consider carefully and make the right decision to protect whales from hunting.

If for no other reason than that Iceland faces a public relations nightmare - please strengthen your commitment to protecting whales.

There are tons of whale meat stored in freezer containers, why kill more whales? Jobs can be created to replace those lost by stopping whaling, many people dont eat whale meat anymore...Please send Whaling to the history books once and for all.

Surely Iceland doesn't have a NEED to whale. Please show wisdom and stop the further endangerment of our oceans and whales!
