And some proud Japanese person will happily buy the very last whale and/or tuna in the sea, mainly because it is tradition.

Don’t buy/eat bluefin tuna.

The wealthy are destroying our home.

Yep they’ll make it extinct.

🥺

That’s some good eatin right there

Japan can just be the absolute worst for a country that is (moderately) peaceful and innovative

Sick sick whale-killing samurai sushi-eaters. Just like it always was, Japan uber alles. It is a crime to run up the value of killing these endangered animals. Leave the seas alone!

And they're resuming whale hunting too, just ridiculous.

Yo chill... it would be nice to still eat tuna in 2050.

Our world is being destroyed by people with too much money. Go back and watch the kid's movie WALL-E. That's where we are now and it ain't all that funny.

Clowns

What we're the people of Easter Island thinking as they cut down the last tree?

I love me some maguro, and so do the Japanese.... Damn!

Because sushi wasn’t expensive enough already.
