What is the issue?

The issue is that Japan is going to continue whaling and lower the whale population drastically, and could throw the balance of the world’s ecosystems off balance.

Who is involved?

Japan and the IWC are involved.

Who is affected and how?

Japan is affected because thet are the ones doing the whaling. The rest of the world is affected because the whaling will throw the world’s ecosystems off balance. The whales are also affected because thet are the ones being hunted.

If I were in a position of power, what would I do?

If I were in a position of power, I would contact the world environmental protection service, and I would also try and stop the Japanese from whaling any longer.
