Hi Guys
I recieved this alarming e-mail from a friend. Never again will I buy
Sealord tuna. And they say their tuna is dolphin safe. Pfoo!

It's time for you to join our whales campaign. We're taking the battle from
the high seas to your supermarket.
Greenpeace has just returned from the Southern Ocean, defending whales from
a fleet of hunters. Our brave activists risked their lives to come between
the whales and the harpoons.
The Greenpeace ships can't stay in the Southern Ocean any longer. But we
hope our struggle has inspired people to help us defend whales.
Now it's your turn.
Greenpeace wants you to help stop whaling by pressuring seafood companies
that fund the whale hunters.

We are asking a major seafood company to end whaling.
How some seafood companies fund whaling
Did you know whaling companies profit from fish sold in your local
supermarket?
Seafood company, Sealord, makes millions of dollars selling tinned, frozen
and fresh fish in Australian supermarkets. Sealord is half owned by Nissui,
a major shareholder of the company that operates Japan's whaling fleet.
Nissui funds whale hunting and sells the whale meat throughout Japan.
We want Sealord to pressure Nissui to end whale hunting.

Sign our petition to Sealord now. We need 30,000 signatures.
Many Whales are still dying
The whaling ships are still out there, killing hundreds of minke whales.
Next year, they will target endangered fin and humpback whales.
Your help makes all the difference
In Argentina, 21,000 concerned Greenpeace supporters emailed a popular
seafood company, Santa Elena, and convinced them to cancel contracts with
Nissui. Public support made all the difference.

Sign our petition and show Sealord that whaling is bad for business.
Our petition needs 30,000 signatures. Spread the word. Send this email to
your family and friends so they can help our campaign too.
With many voices, we can make a difference.
Thanks for all your support.
