7:15 PM - Mission Possible: Dolphin and Whale Preservation (FREE)

In a striking Power Point presentation, Anthony Marr will detail his two trips to Japan (2004, 2005) to conduct missions - both overt and covert - to fight whaling and dolphin capture/slaughter. Enduring surveillance and multiple interrogations, at risk of life and liberty, Marr captured an eye-opening view of relevant aspects of Japan - its scenery, government, people, culture, animals, and atrocities. Upon returning from Japan, Marr worked on the seal massacre issue of his home country, Canada. This presentation is part of an international campaign of grassroots action for whale and dolphin preservation.
