The ocean is so rich with life. The marine cycle must be kept in balance if it is to sustain itself, flow smoothly and remain healthy. If any part of the system is removed the chain will break and the eco system will collapse.
Whales, the largest mammal of the seas, play a major role in keeping this system intact. Without them, everything will break down and the natural marine ecosystem will be ruined.
How does the whaling industry affect the environment?
The ecological effects of whaling have caused a significant reduction in many marine species. Exploitation by fisheries and whaling industries has caused some species to become endangered or extinct.
A solution to stop whaling is educating the population and raising awareness on the consequences of whaling and its negative, irreversible impact on marine life.
A combination of political pressure, coordinated activities with private organisations, and internationally supported education on anti-whaling, cannot keep being ignored by the whaling industry.
