Here's the link: <a href="http://www.greenpeace.org/international/campaigns/oceans/whaling/icelandic-whaling/ask-iceland-to-save-whales">Save the whales</a> Prime Minister Sigurdardottir can cancel Iceland's five year commercial whaling quota -- but she's under pressure from the whaling industry not to. According to the Icelandic Tourist Board, more than 500,000 people visited in 2008. Almost 115,000 people of these people went whale watching, with more than 20% of them citing whale watching as an important reason for visiting Iceland, spending millions of dollars in the process. Another 115,000 people have signed a Greenpeace ‘Iceland Pledge’, stating that they would seriously consider visiting Iceland if Iceland stops whaling, as well as agreeing for their contact details to be shared with the Icelandic government.
