Japan kills whales despite International Court's ruling


"Japan has announced it will resume whaling in the Antarctic early next year after a break of more than a year. 

The decision comes despite an International Court of Justice (ICJ) ruling that Japan cease all whaling.
The Japanese government says it has taken into account the court ruling and its "scientific" whaling programme will be much smaller.

But the announcement has been condemned by environmental groups and the Australian and UK governments."

Check out the story on BBC News then please email or phone the Japanese Consulate in your country and demand that they immediately and permanently cease whale hunting.
