David Attenborough's Final Warning To Humanity
“A man’s passion for the natural world, sparked by a childhood love of fossils and wildlife, blossomed into a life-long career. Over more than 60 years, he traveled the globe, bringing the wonders of the planet into our homes and becoming a beloved voice for millions. Now, in the twilight of his career, he issues a stark warning: the Earth is on the brink of a man-made catastrophe, and it's up to us to save it before it's too late”.
Dutch to ban raw ivory sales from 2019
All countries need to ban the import of ivory!
The Netherlands said Monday it will ban all raw ivory sales from next year, as it unveiled the results of a major operation to combat trafficking in endangered animals and plants.
Currently Dutch law permits the sale of raw ivory such as elephant tusks with an EU certificate, provided it entered the country between 1947 and 1990.
