It’s too barbaric to imagine, but it still happens. Fishermen catching? sharks at our local Dive Sites in Thailand, and also finning where the sharks fins are cut off and the shark cast back into the water to die. This horrific practice is already prohibited in the marine parks in Thailand but with evidence collected it seems to continue without punishment.
Your signature can encourage Thailand to prepare and implement plans for shark conservation and management.
This petition implores Thailand to stop the fishing of sharks at our local dive sites and the banning of finning in there local waters and around the dive sites.?
Sharks play a critical role in ocean ecosystems. Their numbers are beginning to dwindle. Please help them today!!
Sign Now to encourage Suwit Khunkitti -Minister for Natural Resource and Environment? to take action immediately to protect the shark populations in Thailand and stop shark finning.
Stop Shark Fishing & Finning In Thailand
Organics are under attack again. Earlier this year, Monsanto made efforts to market and sell its genetically modified (GMO) Roundup Ready (TM) alfalfa. The USDA has given initial signs that it is preparing to grant Monsanto approval to distribute its seed, even knowing that it is almost certain the crop’s modified genes will contaminate non-GMO — including organic — alfalfa.
Fortunately, the possibility of the USDA giving Monsanto the green light has caught the attention of two leading members of Congress, who are pressuring Secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilsack to maintain the ban on GMO alfalfa in order to protect farmers, the environment and the organic industry.
But we only have until Wednesday, June 16! Please sign the petition to your senators and representative today and urge them to sign the letter and join their colleagues in asking Secretary Vilsack to maintain the ban on Monsanto’s GMO alfalfa.
Stop Monsanto’s GMO Alfalfa!
