Iceland points whaling licence – Mark Avery


On the Whaling Station, Hvalfjörður in 2018

 

Unhappy to say that the Iceland authorities has issued a one-year licence for whaling at the moment – click on right here.

It’s clear that the federal government has not gone so far as whaling pursuits would love, having taken a very long time to decide, solely issuing a one-year licence and limiting the variety of Fin Whales that may be killed to ‘solely’ 128 animals when there was in all probability headroom for a bigger quantity.

Nevertheless it’s a tragic day – and so they beat England at soccer final week!

The previous Prime Minister, Katrin Jacobsdottir, who I met in September 2018, of the Left/Inexperienced coalition left workplace 63 days in the past and her successor, Bjarni Benediktsson, of the Independence Get together, could also be a bit extra sympathetic to whaling it appears.
