Tell Vice President Cheney to Stop Killing Endangered Whales!
Target: Dick Cheney, Vice President
Sponsored by: Care2
Sponsored by: Care2
The endangered North Atlantic Right Whale is the rarest of all large whale species, with fewer than 400 still alive today. Their biggest threat is speeding ships that strike them, causing injury and death. Scientists at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration proposed a reduction in speed around North America ports to protect right whales.
But Vice President Dick Cheney has blocked this rule from taking effect for more than a year, claiming that he knows more about oceans than the NOAA scientists!
Vice President Cheney's delaying tactics have already led to the death of three right whales and the injury of two more from speeding vessels. Scientists warn that the species could become extinct with the death of only one more pregnant female. Urge Vice President Cheney to leave the science to the scientists!

Americans are tired of political undermining and broken promises. We need to understand the consequences of our actions, and this can be one of the first steps. I CANNOT BELIEVE WHAT I AM READING!! Protect these beautiful creatures.

Americans are tired of political undermining and broken promises. It's time for action and time for leaders who can get things done.
