I would really like to write a letter to someone or an email about my opinions on seal clubbing. I think it is horribly wrong. I saw a video of guys going and clubbing seals and it made me CRY. I’m 13. Don’t say kids don’t matter because we do care and I would like to do anything I can to help.
There are organizations of people who try to protect wild life, and our planet Earth … use search engine to find organizations like
GREEN PEACE
http://www.greenpeace.org/usa/
http://www.saveourenvironment.org/
There are also groups that focus specifically on trying to change Canada’s legal practice of clubbing baby seals to death, and in some cases, skinning them while they are still alive
http://babyseals.care2.com/
http://www.hsus.org/protect_seals.html
http://www.ifaw.org/ifaw/general/default.aspx?oid=21446
These organizations lobby various governments to try to get them to change the laws regarding mistreatment of seals, dolphins, birds, all kinds of creatures.
There are also boycotts of Canadian products from companies engaged in this practice … but you might want to do MORE than just the boycott.
A few years ago Greenpeace identified the US fast food restaurants that bought fish that had been caught by Japanese trawlers using methods that kill dolphins … two of them were chains that I had been going to. I went one last time to deliver a letter to the management … I am an old customer, for years. You won’t be seeing me again for a while, and here’s why.
They must have put it up on the employee bulletin board because I had 20-30 people tell me they found out about it and were joining the boycott. I had not told anyone, I just did it as a matter of conscience. When Greenpeace later reported that those restaurant chains had quit buying fish from the dolphin killers, I wrote another letter "I’m back, because …"
Before you get heavily involved with any of them, you might double check that it is Ok with your parents, because some of the pro-environment non-government organizations, can get pretty hostile against the people who are mean to the animals.
In some nations it is LEGAL to be brutal to baby seals, dolphins in the wild, etc. so the organizations that try to stop this, they are in the wrong legally.
Yes I agree that the LAW is wrong Morally and Ethically, but your parents might not want you participating in an organization that is in the wrong Legally.
Assuming your parents approve of the work of the UN, you might want to review what this international body is doing to try to save our planet.
