In original language:
Oceanen Actie Walvis Kadavers
Actievoerders van Greenpeace brengen zes kadavers van walvissen en dolfijnen naar het plein in Den Haag. De zeezoogdieren zijn gestorven in visnetten of dodelijk verwond door schepen. De bedreigingen waaraan walvisachtigen blootgesteld worden zijn groot. Ieder jaar verdrinken er maar liefst driehonderdduizend walvissen en dolfijnen in visnetten. Greenpeace wil dat Nederland een voortrekkersrol inneemt bij de bescherming van de walvissen en dolfijnen, zowel in Europees verband als binnen de Internationale Walvisvaartcommissie (IWC), die deze week van start is gegaan.
