To the EU Commission and all European governments:

As global citizens deeply concerned about the future of elephants, we call on you to adopt a full ban on ivory exports, and a full domestic trade ban. A ban on exporting raw ivory is not enough -- the future of the species is in jeopardy and shouldn't be overruled by niche economic interests.

EU: End the ivory trade
We've pushed elephants to the brink of extinction but we've never had a more hopeful moment to save them.

China's enormous legal ivory market has long been the excuse for inaction by governments around the world. Legal markets gave poachers cover for their blood ivory -- they just pretend it's antique!

But China just announced they'll make the entire ivory trade illegal -- this changes everything! Now, EU countries are discussing Europe's next steps on ivory. Germany and Luxembourg could push to follow China -- let's give them the support of millions around the world, and keep up the pressure to save elephants for good.
