What! Whaling is Legitimized!

Hello world,
Not quite yet. Negotiations are still being held between the International Whaling Commision and whaling countries. A meeting in march is being held to discuss a possible comprimise between anti-whaling countries and those who do. The plan is to bring all whaling under control of IWC in the next ten years, and set quotas for how many whales each country can take. The reason that this has come up is that even though there's been a moratorium on whale hunting for the past thirty years, several countries have continued under the guise of scientific research. Many conservation groups are up in arms over this because the plan would allow the Japanese to continue to hunt whales within the newly set up South Sea Conservatory. The number of legally poached whales in that area has increased over the last decade, and this spot is perfect for whales to live. This is a good idea for controlling the amount of whales killed, but the sanctuary shouldn't be allowed to be fished by anybody, under no disguise.
