Letter
from Senator Marc Harb about sealing industry.
April 2012:
Good news.
We did it! Thanks to donations from thousands of supporters like you,
our hard-hitting ad slamming the two British-based corporations behind the
disastrous Pebble Mine appeared in yesterday’s national edition of The
New York Times.
The ad will also run in London’s Financial Times on Thursday,
the same day that both companies will be holding their annual shareholders
meetings -- forcing investors to ask themselves if they really want
a share of this environmental and financial disaster.
NRDC will be delivering 400,000 new Letters of Protest to those
meetings and we’ll be testifying, alongside representatives from Bristol Bay,
against this unacceptable assault on one of America’s last and greatest wild
places.
March 2012:
Hi All,
Good news. First of all, Dutch minister Bleeker is investigating the
malpratice of dog breeders, so this is great news, we maybe have added a
very small pebble to the success of this, by placing an item about malafide
dog breeders at our website . Small pebbles will form a large stone, and in
the end a giant rock. So we will continue our actions against those awf...ul
dog breeders, no matter what. We have been threatened by these dog breeders,
well, let them come, we are not afraid. My believe is that things can be
changed by making politicians aware of what is going on, and yes, it worked
again. We campaigned against the seal slaughter in Namibia a few years ago,
asked politicians to help us and this resulted in a total import ban of all
seal products, including the Cape Fur Seal products in the entire European
community and creating awareness in the rest of the world about this unknown
slaugter. At first it seemed hopeless, but we, and most of all, the Cape Fur
Seals, have won. We were their voice. We now try to acomplish the same thing
for the thousands and thousands of helpless puppies, breeded by ruthless
breeders, only for money, as it always is the cause.
It is always all about money, not the wellbeing of animals. I will continue
to protest against this, whatever is within my power, I will never ever give
up.
Good news also about the ridicilous whale hunt the Japanese still say they
are doing for scientific reasons, but now the whole world knows it is only
for consumption. They stopped their hunt, only managed to catch 25% of their
idiotic quotum, because Sea Shepherd blocked access to their factory ship.
It raises the question also why they need a factory ship if this terrible
hunt is only for scientific reasons. Operation Devine Winds as Sea Shepherd
called their mission this year was a very succesful one and I applaud them
for this.
Thank you Sea Shepherd for saving so many minke whales this year.
