Wednesday, March 20th 2019 at
12 noon in front of the town hall, a rally has been organized by One
Voice and Sea Shepherd France to alert public opinion against the
project of oceanographic centre in Dieppe, which plans to put in a
glass jar thousands of sentient beings who have only one aspiration
in life: to live free.

The aquarium project of one
hundred and twenty pools, one thousand two hundred species, and thus
tens of thousands of tropical captive individuals, a few meters from
the Channel, seems already acquired.

The mayor of Dieppe is
promoting it, praising the jobs that it will create, without seeing
that this purely economic vision is a short-term vision. Times have
changed: now the whole population is aware of the fragility of
ecosystems and our survival depends on them all.

Muriel Arnal, president and
founder of One Voice, says:

«We cannot continue to lock up sentient beings for our entertainment or for scientific pretexts. The only place for animals is in the wild, living in freedom! And this wild kingdom must be cherished and protected.»

For
One Voice and Sea Shepherd France, fish, including sharks, and all
other marine animals have nothing to do what so ever in living in
glass jars. They have the right to live by their nature, regardless
of humans, in an environment protected from pollution and
overfishing.

One Voice and Sea Shepherd
France, who are in partnership, are organizing a rally in front of
the Dieppe town hall Wednesday March 20th at noon, to oppose the
project for this oceanographic centre in the district of the railway
station. The building permit must not be issued !
