A sad day for The Cove

Whale slaughter

First dolphin slaughter of the 2011/2012 season

Simply put, my heart aches for the pain these poor creatures have to go through. Awareness must continue to be raised. Since you (my readers) and I are aware, it is our duty to end this. I will be posting throughout yet another year of this injustice. Please refer back here for any information and make sure to follow Save Japan Dolphins Blog for information straight from the ghastly site in Taiji, Japan.

Fighting for our Oceans...

September 1st was International Save Japan Dolphins Day. Congrats to everyone who participated from those of you on the shores of Taiji to those of you who wore your memorabilia and spread the word locally. Everything counts. Let's keep our fingers crossed that this year the cove will not bleed red with the blood of our friends. So far there has not been a lot of action going on in the cove, so lets hope it stays like this throughout the slaughter season.


California Coastal Clean up Day is approaching fast! September 17th, 2011 from 9am to noon, volunteers from around California will be cleaning up thousands of pounds of trash from our water shed systems. Last year alone in San Diego, 8,800 volunteers came together and removed 200,000 pounds of trash and recyclables from over 165 miles of shorelines. It makes a difference. This huge event is once a year (although other clean up days are bimonthly if your interested). Not only is CCD (Coastal Clean Up Day) a fun and rewarding event, but it also reminds other people who see us volunteers that every little piece of trash makes a difference. If you are interested in volunteering please refer HERE. I hope to see you all there!
