Majestic whales play a crucial role in marine ecosystems, vital for maintaining ocean health and aiding in the fight against climate change. Greenpeace emphasises the significant threats these magnificent beings face, including commercial whaling, climate change, and ocean pollution.

A key focus is also on protecting whales from the harmful effects of seismic blasting, used in the pursuit of climate-damaging gas. Join Greenpeace's mission to protect these essential ocean inhabitants, ensuring a healthier planet for future generations.
