MAJOR victory for whales

http://ift.tt/1ggsABQ



Today the ICJ ruled against Japan's "research" (lol) whaling in the protected Southern Ocean sanctuary.




Quote:








The UN's top court has ordered Japan to stop its annual whale hunt in the Antarctic, rejecting Tokyo's argument that it is for scientific purposes, in an emotive case activists said was make-or-break for the giant mammal's future.




Quote:








Japan in April 2013, announced its whaling haul from the Southern Ocean was at a record low because of "unforgivable sabotage" :D by activists from the environmental group Sea Shepherd.





I'm sure many a teeth with be gnashed by this ruling, but the fact is that the world became a slightly better place today.
