Save Whales and Dolphins
"The slaughter of 20,000 dolphins, porpoises, and small whales occurs in Japan each year. " - Sea Shepard.
This is a message that you may have came across from the Movie "The Cove". The awareness generated from that film has helped a lot, yet these slaughters still happen. There is more activism to be done.
The awesome thing is that I purchased this shirt from a website that ships direct from China. The models all have the Asian look and the sizes run super small. When I order from this website, my normal America Medium sizes jumps up to a recommended L, when really it's an XL. With all the online shopping warnings aside, I appreciate that there is such an awesome strong message coming through the guilty pleasure, cheep online shopping site. Though it is targeted to other countries the style is coming from China and Japanese influences. It feels good to know that they are wearing this message out over where it counts. In the country where the cetaceans slaughters occur.
The ironic this is where I decided to pose for this picture. Here I am promoting the end of whale killing yet filling up on them. As the fossils that go into fossil fuels are made up of many things decayed from the earth many many years ago. So in a since we kill mother earth for our fuel. That's a whole other fashion blog subject. We all have a balance to work on. But at least I drive a hybrid! Right? Its a cultural habit that is till working it self out; fossil fuels.
As is the killing of whales and dolphins in Japan. It's said that when young men do this, it's a right of passage in becoming a man. That should be an easy fix right? Well here's how you can help.
