Target: Prime Minister Fumio Kishida of Japan
Goal: Put an end to the killing of whales for their meat in Japan to protect these majestic creatures and promote sustainable marine conservation.
Whaling has been a controversial practice in Japan for many years. Despite the international ban on commercial whaling, Japan continues to engage in whaling activities under the guise of “scientific research” and allows the sale of whale meat in local markets.
The killing of whales for their meat not only causes immense suffering to these intelligent and majestic creatures but also threatens the delicate balance of marine ecosystems. Whales play a critical role in maintaining the health of our oceans and their removal from the ecosystem can have catastrophic effects.
In addition, the hunting of whales is no longer necessary for subsistence, as there are alternative sources of protein available. The practice is outdated and unnecessary in modern times.
The continued hunting of whales for their meat is not only cruel but also unsustainable. Immediate action must be taken to put an end to this practice and promote sustainable marine conservation efforts.
Sign below and demand the Japanese government take a proactive stance in protecting these magnificent creatures by putting an end to the killing of whales for their meat to both promote sustainable marine conservation and position Japan as a leader in environmental protection.
PETITION LETTER:
Dear Prime Minister Kishida,
We are writing to urge you to put an end to the killing of whales for their meat in Japan. Despite the international ban on commercial whaling, Japan continues to engage in whaling activities under the guise of “scientific research” and allows the sale of whale meat in local markets.
This practice is not only cruel and inhumane but also poses a serious threat to the survival of whale populations. Whales play a crucial role in maintaining the balance of our oceans, and their continued slaughter undermines the health and well-being of marine ecosystems worldwide.
Furthermore, the consumption of whale meat is no longer a cultural necessity and is considered a luxury item in Japan. The vast majority of Japanese citizens do not consume whale meat, and the demand for it continues to decline. In light of this, there is no justification for the continued killing of these majestic creatures.
Ending the sale and consumption of whale meat will not only protect the welfare of whales, but also contribute to the health and sustainability of our oceans and marine life. We believe that by demonstrating leadership in this area, Japan can become a champion for marine conservation and set an example for the rest of the world to follow.
We call on you to take immediate action to put an end to the killing of whales for their meat in Japan.
Sincerely,
[Your Name Here]

Murdering bastards.
LESS THAN HUMAN BEINGS SICK PHYCOPATHS ARE ALL OVER OUR WORLD!!!
Quit raping the oceans.
Let these magnificent animals live
HOW LONG HAVE PEOPLE BEEN TRYING TO STOP THIS?!!
YOU ARE ON THE EVIL SIDE OF HISTORY!
…AND YOU KNOW ITS WRONG BECAUSE YOU ARE MAKING UP EXCUSES AS TO WHY YOU MURDER EVERY WHALE THAT NEARS YOUR COUNTRY! THIS IS AN OUT AND OUT MASSACRE!
THERE ARE AN ARRAY OF REASONS WHY YOU SHOULD HEED THE INTERNATIONAL BAN ON WHALE HUNTING BEFORE YOU HAVE NOTHING TO HUNT!!!!!!!
DISGUSTING SCAR ON YOUR COUNTRY!
Is there NOTHING that those people ( so called) do not put in their greedy mouths. Everything was not put on the earth to EAT. It really sickens me. You are a disgusting cruel and inhuman race.
Sick murdering SOB’s. These are such wonderful and majestic creatures. LEAVE THEM ALONE
Same as our beautiful horses here in Canada they get shipped to Korea and Japan for food.Ni frigging need. They are brutally shipped without food and water and brutally slaughtered. Sick world.
Stop this extreme environmental crime!
Please stop the unnecessary murder of these beautiful creatures for human greed.
When is your Country going to come into the 21st Century? STOP SLAUGHTERING THESE BEAUTIFUL ANIMALS!!!!! THEY WERE NOT PUT ON THIS EARTH FOR YOU TO EAT AND DRIVE TO EXTINCTION!!!!!! DISGUSTING!!!!!!
Why would an advanced nation continue this cruel and barbaric practice?? Has to be stopped!!
Japan needs to be sighted and fines for allowing radio active waste to be dumped into the ocean and killing whales. The first problem is without question and the second is being a force of lies on the world stage. It is a fact that whales help with our carbon problem. In some cases even more than trees. Japan has said they will protect the earth but then to kill so many whales proves your statement is a lie. How to respond? Grow up and stop murdering whales. You say it’s for their meat. So eat veggies. It’s going to be that way in the future. Eat veggies or starve. Killing whales, farm animals, stealing all the ocean fish and treating animals as though they were designed simply for your country is wrong. We share so that all may eat and still maintain the earth.
Agree all comments slaughter all these cruel fuckers who do this these countries all sick cruel bastards and something needs to be done in these places and STOP NOW.
I have said it before and I will say it again. Men are the root of all evil. May all involved in this slaughter receive the same fate. They shrug off that other forms of life such as wild life or ocean life have the right to live. To use the excuse that killing all these whales are for “scientific research” shows us all that Japan is just another corrupt Country.
All Asians are killing, murdering, torturing, evil bastards towards animals. They hold no animal in high regards or safe from their killing. I worked for a company that had hired a Chinese lady and she talked about going to a pet shop to get a dog for eating!!!! What the hell??? She was fired the next day – I think because all of us had such an angry, horrified reaction and starting calling HR to complain. If the Asians were not on this earth, so many more innocent animals (including marine life) would be safe. I’d not have any regrets if all Asians were annihilated. During WWII, the American POW’s under Japanese soldiers were subjected to horrific, unimaginable tortures. I know it was war, I’m aware of that. But there should be some iota, no matter how small, of decency – and the Japanese didn’t have even the most miniscule thought of decency. I think that Asians are the cause of a lot of extinction on this earth.
Stop the unnecessary killing of these magnificent animals. Upsetting the balance of nature with over killing these whales . Mother Nature has away of getting even.
