Happy World Oceans Day!

   
Dear Friend,

I am happy to be able to send this message from Tokyo to you today and thank you for your support.

Greenpeace has been peacefully protesting for environmental protection for decades. What started in one man's front room in Vancouver, before I was even born, is now a global force for good.

You're helping to keep that history and tradition alive. But as my colleague Toru Suzuki and I know all too well, speaking up for our fragile earth can pose serious risks.


Call for an end to whaling now!  
June 8th is World Oceans Day. We can celebrate the fact that we know so much more about our Blue Planet than ever before. We have sent submarines to the deepest canyons and sailed every part of the world, discovering new species and ecosystems - and how they are connected. We have seen how overfishing just one species can have devastating effects on an entire ecosystem and we understand the urgent need to protect our oceans. With your help we have been taking direct action and campaigning to save our seas.

In Japan we have been working to end whaling since our office opened 20 years ago. Japanese whaling is one of the most extreme examples of the needless waste of ocean life. Two years ago along with my colleague Toru, we took action to turn the tide on whaling here at home in Japan. And for the last two years we have paid the price for that peaceful protest. We were arrested and held without charge for 23 days - tied to chairs while we were interrogated, without our lawyers present. We have been charged with theft and trespass for taking action to secure the evidence of organised theft and embezzlement at the highest levels.

I know what I did was right. Our prosecution is political and our human rights have been abused. Despite that, and despite countless protests worldwide, Toru and I may still go to jail, for up to ten years.

We're in court again on World Oceans Day - for the final part of our trial. So, I reach out to you, my fellow Rainbow Warrior, to make sure that your voice is heard loud and clear here in Tokyo. Please send a letter to the Japanese Foreign Minister telling him to prosecute the real whaling criminals and defend our right to save our planet.


Thank you & Happy World Oceans Day!
-- Junichi

Stop whaling for World Oceans Day!
Demand justice for the Tokyo Two and the whales
We are at a pivotal time in the history of whale conservation. As Junichi Sato and Toru Suzuki, known as the Tokyo Two, await a verdict in the whale meat embezzlement trial in Japan, the future of whaling will come under scrutiny at the International Whaling Commission (IWC) meeting this month - in Morocco.

Call for an end to whaling in the Southern Ocean and support Junichi and Toru by writing to Japan's Foreign Minister.

Message * Dear Sir,

In the last year, Japan has taken important steps to lead the world on environmental issues. By embracing climate solutions instead of short-term profits, Japan has proved itself to be a progressive and forward-thinking voice on global issues. I am writing to ask that again Japan again make a decision based on the future.

Japan’s 'scientific' whaling in the Southern Ocean whale sanctuary has stained the image and reputation of Japan for decades. The Antarctic ocean is one of our last pristine marine ecosystems and should finally become the sanctuary that was intended decades ago. Japan’s commitment to end whaling in the Southern Ocean would be an appropriate way to mark the International Year of Biodiversity. This can happen at the next meeting of the International Whaling Commission in Morocco this month

Two years ago, Junichi Sato and Toru Suzuki, two Japanese Greenpeace activists exposed the corruption and embezzlement behind your government’s whaling programme. Instead of investigating their claims, Japan has put these two men on trial. They risk up to ten years in jail for a peaceful protest motivated purely by public interest. I respectfully request that you do all you can to honour Japan’s commitments to international human rights agreements by ending this prosecution.

The prosecution of Sato and Suzuki – known as the Tokyo Two - has produced further international outcry and concern. The United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights noted her concern at their prosecution during a recent visit to Japan and the United Nations Human Rights Council Working Group on Arbitrary Detention concluded the prosecution was political and the human rights of the two men had been abused. Numerous other organisations and legal experts have registered similar concerns.

Please listen to the global community. End the whaling operations and the trial that are undermining Japan’s potential for environmental leadership.

Thank you for your time.

Sincerely,
infoMessage

亲爱的伙伴：
动笔一刻，身陷东京；得君鼎力，心情畅快！

为大自然请命！——绿色和平组织走过三十八载。在世界上活跃的一支绿色中坚力量，怎能想象这一切的开始只是一群人的白日梦？在梦开始的时候，我这个小辈还未降临人世呢！

而今天，正是你我，在为绿色和平的明天书写历史。我的同事铃木彻和我明白得很，在环境日益恶化的背景下，对我们来说那些不得不说的话，却被某些人认为是应该闭嘴不谈的。因此我们有“麻烦”了！

立即停止捕鲸活动！

6月8日，世界海洋日。正如英国作家狄更斯所说：“这是最好的时代”——人类对这个蓝色星球所掌握的知识，比以往任何世代都多，最宏伟的大海沟里游曳着的深海机器人，世界上每一片海域都航行着我们的船只；新发现的物种层出不穷，随之到来的则是鬼斧神工的生态系统。
同时高强度的渔业捕捞，不光是对单一物种的毁灭，还可能是对其相关的生态系统的釜底抽薪般的破坏——这会是“最坏的时代”么？
保护海洋！我们已经进行了一次又一次的切实有效的“战役”，在你的支持下，我们将永远进行下去！

自从绿色和平在日本设立办事处以来，我们已经为了鲸鱼奔走呼喊了20年。日本的捕鲸行为造成海洋资源的极大浪费。两年前，彻与我一起，为改变这一不必要的事实而工作。过去两年，因为和平抗议这一丑行，我们惹上了“麻烦”——23天拘留，不准保释，非人道逼供，不准约见律师。我们为了抢救证据而行动，被控以盗窃和非法闯入的罪名。

我坚信我当时的选择。为了捕鲸早一日停止，也是因为我们人身权利被侵犯，我们坚持抗诉。尽管全球性的抗议行动此起彼伏，彻和我还是会面临最高10年的监禁。

今天是世界海洋日，我们站在终审席上。我的伙伴——彩虹勇士们，虽吾身在日本，与君心系一舟。
亲爱的伙伴，请写信告知日本政府外务大臣：起诉真正的罪犯，保护我们共有的蓝色星球，并为捍卫这自由且神圣的权利而奋斗。

谢谢!再次祝你世界海洋日快乐！

                                        ——纯——

    我朋友帮翻译了下  可能是“我们已经对‘盗窃’这种行为 提出指控， 在最大程度上有力打击这种有组织的 ‘盗窃’”  因为没有给他语言环境 所以不清楚准确的翻译 [s:51]
