Subject: Re: Navy to kill 1,800 whales and dolphins? And deafen 15,900 more?
Hi—I wanted to make sure you saw
my petition the other day.
According to the U.S. Navy's own estimates, the use of high-frequency underwater sound for testing will deafen 15,900 whales and dolphins and kill 1,800 more over the next five years.
According to the U.S. Navy's own estimates, the use of high-frequency underwater sound for testing will deafen 15,900 whales and dolphins and kill 1,800 more over the next five years.
Whales and dolphins depend on sound to navigate and
live. The Navy is required to include comments from the public on their
Environmental Impact Statement (EIS), so your signature and comment on my SignOn.org petition could help stop this naval
program and save the lives of these ocean creatures.
My petition says:
Stop the killing of 1,800 whales and dolphins and
the deafening of 15,900 more by ceasing the operation of the Navy's underwater
sound system in the Hawaiian Islands, the California and Atlantic Coasts, and
the Gulf of Mexico.
