This years theme was S.O.S. Save our Sharks, and “Fish Rights” The National Aquarium in Baltimore was the perfect place to hold the “National” event being a great example of where we need to start helping our planet by protesting the old school process of killing fish for money because they have no rights and selling our “American Sharks” to other countries that are smart enough to protect their own by a wholesaler that says it’s “responsible” to sell 14 ft. sharks to Pet Stores and brags about dumping high doses of chemicals on all the fish in quarantine together causing the need to periodically replace the fish that have gone though chemo poisoning.
Better Natural ways have been developed to fix this problem, But because fish have “no rights” there is no need to develop into sustainable collecting and keeping practices unless we let these companies know this is unacceptable and will no longer be allowed in America at the National Aquarium the world is laughing our national joke if that’s the best America has to offer.
So on Earth day we let the world know we care about earth enough to do the right thing. We will have three petitions there.
1. Stop the sale of Nurse Sharks to Pet Stores.

2. “Fish Rights” All animals deserve to be treated the same.

3. Remove the “National” from the aquarium’s name until they develop sustainable fish conservation.

Although we made some signs, We allowed the kids to make some of their own.
