Petitions

#BanSharkFinning

Ask your politicians to ban the trade of shark fins in the U.S. Although shark finning is prohibited in U.S. waters, the country still has a market for shark fins.

​

Protect Tope Sharks

List Tope sharks under the U.S. Endangered Species Act. Overexploitation of this species is leading to their extinction. Keep updated on DTA's progress.

​

Say No to Shark Fins

As many as 73 million sharks are traded throughout the world to satisfy the hunger for shark fin soup. Ask the U.S. to support the Shark Fin Sales Elimination Act. 

​

Shark Culling Impact Tracker

Tell the Queensland Government’s Shark Control Program to stop senseless killing of marine wildlife with nets and drumlines. This is a misguided effort to stop shark bites.

​

Give Flake a Break

Make a difference today by pledging to #GiveFlakeABreak. Commit to avoid buying flake and choose sustainable seafood instead (if you wish to buy fish)

​

#Protect30x30

Help protect 30% of lands and oceans by 2030! More Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) the better chance sharks have of recovering lost populations.
