OUR PETITIONS
Our nature is not a waste dump! Stop unnecessary single-use plastics.
With the petition against unnecessary single-use plastic, 13,187 people called on the Swiss Federal Council to stop the plastic flood in Switzerland. An art performance by OceanCare and The Trash Traveler in Bern underscored the demand with powerful symbolism.
A healthy Ocean is essential for life on the blue planet.
With the petition Because Our Planet Is Blue, 114,559 people sent a powerful message in support of legally binding ocean protection. The petition was presented to political decision-makers and representatives of the United Nations at the UN Ocean Conference in Nice in 2025.
End the Faroese Whale and Dolphin hunts
On the 12th September 2021 at least 1,428 Atlantic white-sided dolphins and dozens of juveniles were killed in one single mass killing event in the Faore Islands. This is the largest dolphin hunt in the islands’ history and possibly the largest single hunt ever undertaken worldwide. It happened in European waters at the doorstep of the European Union which grants these marine mammals the highest protection status and prohibits any direct takes.
On Friday, 9th September 2022, we handed over your signature to the EU representation in Berne, Switzerland.
