Goal
Whales naturally live very long lifespans, sing beautiful songs and communicate in complex languages, and each population has its own culture and social structure.
I am fundraising for the Captain Paul Watson Foundation to save the lives of whales. This organization has a crew on land and on sea to advocate against, document, and when possible intervene against the ruthless massacres in Iceland and the Danish Faroe Islands.
What's possible? The 169 Fin whales (total population, 100K) could be saved... their impact to the Earth's carbon cycle is equivalent to 250,000 trees! They are also socially complex and sing beautiful songs ❤
What's possible? The Pilot Whales that die gruesomely by the hundreds (usually 1000 per year) could potentially be diverted from bays in the Faroe Islands (Denmark)... creatures that have more neocortical neurons than any other mammal! Twice as many as humans ❤
Supporting and building this movement can save these valuable and beautiful whale lives.
