Greenpeace is in the Southern Ocean to stop Japan's annual 'scientific' whale hunt. This year the Fisheries Agency of Japan has more than doubled its planned catch of minke whales to 935 and added 10 endangered fin whales which are the second largest creatures on earth after blue whales. Greenpeace ships MY Esperanza (MYE) and MY Arctic Sunrise (MYAS) carry seventy crew and campaigners from 19 countries to defend the whales in the Southern Ocean Whale Sanctuary as part of Greenpeace's campaign 'Defending our Oceans'.Locations:Antarctica-Southern OceanDate:22 Dec, 2005Credit:© GreenpeaceDuration:3m51sAudio format:NaturalProduction Type :B-ROLLKeywords:Actions and protests-Aerial view-Confrontation-Danger-Death-Factory ships-Fisheries agency of Japan-Greenpeace activists-Greenpeace inflatables-Harpoons-Ice-Icebergs-KWCI (GPI)-MY Arctic Sunrise-Oceans (campaign title)-Protective clothing-Spraying-Whalers-Whales-WhalingShoot:Southern Ocean Tour 2005 to 2006Greenpeace is using every available means to bring the whaling hunt to an early end and make it the last time the Sanctuary is breached by the whalers.Related Collections:Southern Ocean Tour 2005 to 2006 (Photos & Video)
