Sharpening their harpoons

摘要

Seventeen dead whales and dolphins lie glistening in the sun by Berlin's Brandenburg Gate. Greenpeace, which collected the dead animals from the beaches of Europe, hopes the sight will draw attention to the threats facing the world's whales ahead of the annual meeting of the International Whaling Commission (IWC), which takes place next week in Anchorage, Alaska. While the delegates gather, Greenpeace plans to display collections of carcasses to the horrified citizens of Stockholm and Amsterdam, to stir up further indignation.
