In just a few days, Icelandic whalers killed two giant fin whales for profit – and local experts say there is more to come.

Why? The Icelandic government vowed to put forward a law against whaling, but progress is slow. And fishermen are rushing to slaughter whales while they can. But if faced with enough public pressure, Prime Minister Kristrún Frostadóttir could choose to act and stop whaling right now.

Let’s shine a spotlight on this savagery. Add your name and when we reach 500,000 signatures, we will deliver our voices straight to the prime minister demanding an end to the whale slaughter – sign and share now.
