Dirty fingers in dirty pies
If you know of companies or countries that are exploiting marine
animals, let us know and we'll add them to the list . This list ,
as it stands is not meant to be exhaustive, its just a starters,
unfortunately.

WHALING
Faroe Isles, Japan, Norway and Iceland are the main
protaganists.
In 1993 a campaign to stop the slaughter of cetaceans by the Faroe
Islanders was launched in the UK by targetting their exports of
fish. Despite the campaign Tesco, Marks and Spencer, Sainsburys and
Somerfield continued to sell fish from the Isles. Sadly the
campaign fizzled out, yet Safeways, Asda, Iceland and the Co-op did
join in the boycott and the Islanders lost around £12 million in
sales. In 2005 it is safe to say the bad companies are still
selling Faroese fish, nothing is known about the 'good' companies
policy now.

hungry in the Faroes Isles. Are UK companies that hungry and

Boycott Norway and its products.

Iceland;
Iceland's most important markets for fish exports are the US, UK
and Germany, (where the public are strongly opposed to commercial
whaling). If you must buy fish, (Cetacea Defence advocates a vegan
diet for your health and the health of your planet and its whales
and dolphins) check the source, if it says produce of Iceland and
for that matter any of the other whale and dolphin killers Norway,
the Faroe Isles and Japan.
