Description

The population of Chinese White Dolphins has dropped by a massive 60% in the last 10 years. It’s time to take action!

This petition is so important because the Chinese White Dolphins may become extinct in the near future due to the following:

  • Water Pollution – Sewage, chemicals and household waste
  • Vessel Traffic
  • Underwater noise pollution
  • Construction sites – Chek Lap Kok Airport’s 3rd runway and the Hong Kong Macau Bridge
  • Overfishing causing food depletion
  • Loss of habitat

We need to act now to save the Chinese White Dolphins or they could become extinct in a short time so take action and help!

Please sign my petition so I can send it to: The Director, Agriculture, Fisheries, and Conservation Department, Cheung Sha Wan Government Offices, 303 Cheung Sha Wan Road, Kowloon, Hong Kong, e-mail: afcdenq@afcd.gcn.gov.hk
