We need YOU to help Save the Whales

May be you have never seen a whale. May be you have never heard them sing. Without you noticing, whales are disappearing from our oceans.

The Whale Tail

These beautiful, graceful and intelligent creatures are hunted every year by several nations even though commercial whaling has been banned since 1986. Of the 13 main whale species SEVEN are classified as endangered, including the humpback and minke. That means it would be very easy to hunt them to extinction. Whales are so vulnerable because they mature and reproduce very slowly. Normally, baby whales are only conceived every one to two years.

How can you help?

Greenpeace started fighting to Save the Whales more than 30 years ago, back in 1975. This summer, we invite you to join the battle against whaling by designing a Greenpeace Whale Love Tee. Let us render our support by creating an against-whaling trend in the fashion industry - showing our support through our T-shirt designs. The winning designs will be printed and sold with all profits going to Greenpeace.

If you want to take more actions to support Greenpeace, please feel free to make donation on Greenpeace website:
