2. They are not ‘abortionists’ they are OB/GYN’s, they are medical doctors who go to school for seven years. They also do papsmears, deliver babies, do prenatal check ups, and know essentially everything about the female reproductive systems.

3. Adoption is a great option, but it is not the right choice or even a feesable choice for everyone experiencing an unexpected pregnancy. Some people simply cannot be pregnant for financial, physical, emotional, psychological or safety reason. Adoption is a solution for those who do not wish to be parents. It solves nothing for those who do not wish to be or cannot be pregnant. Two different problems, two different solutions.

Petition: Hong Kong Government: Legislate a ban on the sale and possession of shark fin in Hong Kong.

From Honduras to New Caledonia, from the Bahamas to the Maldives, the people have spoken. And governments have listened. Now is the time for Hong Kong to wake up! The public is ready. The business sector is behind us. Now is the time for a total sale and possession ban on shark fin in Hong Kong. By doing so, Hong Kong will take a giant step to join the conservation efforts of numerous countries around the world who have enacted shark protection legislation. In Latin America it will join Honduras. In the United States it will join California, New York, Hawaii, Washington, Maryland, Delaware and Oregon. In the Pacific region it will join Palau, Tokelau, Marshall Islands, French Polynesia, Cook Islands, American Samoa, Guam, Northern Mariana Islands and New Caledonia. Even China has agreed to stop serving shark fin soup at official banquets, to take effect in the next year or two.

Banning shark fin from the streets of Hong Kong will be the single most important marine conservation achievement of the year. It will be an important step towards protecting the health of our oceans. It will also remove the stain on Hong Kong’s reputation as a world-class tourism hub.
