Do you know this man? He profits from Shark Finning on a global level

Photobucket
Jack Ma

His name is Jack Ma, founder of Alibaba.com, which is one of the worlds largest web suppliers of dried shark fins. Although many online retailers and distributors have recently refused to deal in the immoral shark fin trade and removed them from their product listings, Alibaba.com has refused to follow suit.

This man, along with his business partners involved in the day to day operations of Alibaba.com must be made to understand that his decision to continue to broker the sale of dried shark fins and related products is not viewed as a responsible decision by millions of concerned people around the world. The practice of shark finning must be stopped, and the role Mr. Ma and Alibaba.com play a large role in it’s continuation.

I ask all of my readers to let their voices be heard and sign a petition demanding Alibaba.com to stop their involvement in this immoral and illegal trade. You can sign the petition here. I would also ask that you write to Alibaba.com and let your voices be heard. E-Mail Here.

Thank you for your help in stopping this barbaric, immoral and illegal activity. The ocean’s shark populations will thank you for it.

Stop Distribution of Shark Fins
Dear Sirs.
On behalf of those undersigned concerned about our oceans and oceanic predators we are protesting Alibaba.com as the promoter of sellers, importers and exporters of SHARK FINS. This action is taken in view of the fact that ALIBABA is one of the world’s foremost web suppliers of dried SHARK FINS.

The practice of shark finning is causing huge incentive for the unsustainable and often illegal removal of shark populations world wide. Removing sharks from the oceans will result in an ecological imbalance and is causing irreversible damage to the marine ecosystem. Finning sharks and discarding the body is a brutal practice and is taking food from the mouths of poor nations who fish for sharks.

The profiteering driven by the demand for shark fin soup is unconscionable, and any consumer of shark fin soup, without knowledge of the source of the shark fin is criminal by association. It is for this reason that this Organization and its members will be taking the following actions:
1) Global Boycott of the ALIBABA Company.

2) Global Boycott to any Importer or Exporter that deals with Alibaba.

3) Global Boycott to any shop, outlet or restaurant that offer shark fins.

4) Global Boycott of all known Shark Fin Suppliers.

We will also be spreading the word to all our contacts via the media and the Internet.

Yours respectfully
