I wonder if Star Trek IV: The One With the Whales had anything to do with this.
- leereeves 6y agoI think it probably did help raise awareness about endangered whales and inspire opposition to whaling.
- koheripbal 6y agoHumpback whaling was banned globally in 1966, so no.
- basilgohar 6y agoBanning != stopping, for what its worth. Greater awareness can put pressure on clandestine whaling efforts as well via funding for greater enforcement and related aspects.
