SAN FRANCISCO, December 7 – Iceland’s Prime Minister, Bjarni Benediktsson, is merciless to the plight of thousands of pregnant great whales that his government has sentenced to torturous deaths.
Kristján Loftsson, 81, the wealthiest Icelander and only whaler in the country, has intimidated elected officials and bureaucrats into issuing commercial death warrants for 1045 fin and 1085 minke whales.
The world’s sentient, sapient and peaceful great whales are indispensable in Mother Earth’s last-ditch effort to decelerate manmade global heating.
That Iceland, Japan, Norway and Denmark (Faroe Islands, Greenland) flout an international ban on commercial whaling are indicative of these shameless nation-states and their bloodthirsty lust for Mother Earth’s creatures, biomes and minerals.
Evidently, these whale-loathing countries and territories don’t cherish earthly life whatsoever. Hence, their corrupt governments, oligarchs, enablers, lawyers and bankers are lining their pockets whilst fleecing our Mother and inflicting ever-more pain amidst this godawful Agonising Age.
Hands off the whales. Get outta the oceans.
To the abominable planet-annihilators and their minions: Go tyrannise the Red Planet. Hurry. Get your treasured seats on SpaceX. Off you go to treeless Mars.
There are only two kinds of humans, those that love Mother Earth and those that do not.
So, how can YOU help the whales? Don’t fork-over your money to the annihilators. Refuse to purchase goods, services and tourism from Iceland, Japan, Norway and Denmark. Tell your friends to pass the word along.
Let’s clock em’ where it hurts, their pocket books. Deny commerce.
Switch to a plant-based diet, it’s the single biggest thing that YOU can do, right this moment, to mitigate the climate and extinction emergencies.
Google ‘aggressive direct-action whale campaigns’, support and volunteer with them. Be relentless, courageous and kind. Never be silent. Never give up!
Individually, YOU are powerful. Every choice and purchase that YOU make matters. Take a moment and scrutinise each one.
Together, WE are a vital defence for the heartbeat of the planet, the animals and irreplaceable wilderness. Up the Rebels.
