EARTH ISLAND INSTITUTE INC Petition

End the Brutal Killing of More Than 20,000 Dolphins Every Year in Japan

676,459 signatures

About this Petition:

In the feature documentary "The Cove," a team of activists and filmmakers infiltrate a heavily-guarded cove in Taiji, Japan. In this remote village they witness and document activities deliberately being hidden from the public: More than 20,000 dolphins and porpoises are being slaughtered each year and their meat, containing toxic levels of mercury, is being sold as food in Japan, often times labeled as whale meat.

The majority of the world is not aware this is happening. The Taiji cove is blocked off from the public. Cameras are not allowed inside and the media does not cover the story. It's critical that we get the word out in Japan. Once the Japanese people know we believe they will demand change.

Join the cause! You don't even have to kiss a frog! Help a frog today and you might just save tomorrow's prince. I personally like the newts and salamanders...but an amphibian is an amphibian.

Have u heard? Supposedly there's an armored frog in australia that has become immune to cytrid fungus.

And scientists are actually developing a vaccine for it.

So there's still some hope left!

I am involved with a great company called JavaFit that has just introduced a new fundraising program for non-profit organizations. The program is called "JavaFit Gives Back". I have a great passion for animals and I'm looking for organizations needing to raise money for their respective causes. "JavaFit Gives Back" is the brainchild of the Javalution Coffee Company, a six year old, publicly-traded coffee company based in Florida. The fundraising program gives your organization the ability to raise residual income through the sale of "Functional Coffee". The coffee has four different functions - Energy, Diet, Focus and Immune as well as a Gourmet blend. Around December 1st, Java Fit is also introducing an Organic coffee, a Whole-Bean Coffee and a Decaf Coffee (made with a Swiss waterbath process so NO formaldahyde!) JavaFit also has four "Functional Lattes" in Energy, Diet, Focus and Immune for latte lovers, as well as a single serve teabag type functional coffee coming out soon! If you have a desire to raise an ongoing residual iincome for your
non-profit organization through "JavaFit Gives Back", please
email me at kimmieskoffeekompany@live.com. I welcome any and all inquiries. Your organization can profit beyond belief with this program. We have some churches in the Dallas area already taking advantage of the program. It doesn't cost anything for your organization to get involved - nothing to purchase upfront or ever, and your customers can join for free too! You owe it to your animal friends to check this out...you'll be glad you did!
