Some stuff I want to keep track of, and you might like to peruse, listen to, or watch…

• NPR : Debate Over Whale Hunt Focuses On Japan - It looks like the whole idea of defending a ridiculous practice just for the principle is losing traction. Aired June 21, 2010.
• NY Times Magazine: Tuna’s End by Paul Greenberg – Maybe the best summary I’ve seen on the plight of Bluefin, especially in recent times. Covers the CITES failure, the oil spill, and some great visuals that make the animal seem more real, and how they are caught. Published June 21, 2010.
• On Point (NPR): Killer Whales: Tanks and Tensions with Tom Ashbrook. – A 47-minute radio program exploring whales in captivity, including Tilikum in Orlando.
• Plants & Animals Denver – www.plantsanimals.org – the vegan advocacy group I help organize. We are currently working on a local Bluefin tuna campaign, and putting on vegan community dinners every month.
