‘Zombie’ whaling commission should disband, says ex-chair
Peter Bridgewater, the former chair of the International Whaling Commission (IWC), believes the organization should disband. He argues that most whale populations are recovering and no longer require IWC’s support. The main threats to whales now come from ship-strikes, pollution, and climate change, rather than hunting. The IWC has adapted to address various cetacean issues, but some conservationists see it as an outdated organization hindering more effective environmental efforts.
