Brazil renews push for global whale sanctuary after fresh rejection
Original: whale
A proposal to create a massive whale sanctuary has been rejected again at the international level, but Brazil says it will never stop trying to get the protected zone approved. The South American country has long championed the sanctuary, which would ban commercial whaling across a huge stretch of ocean. Supporters see the repeated rejection as a setback for whale conservation efforts, while Brazil's determination keeps the issue alive among environmental groups and marine protection advocates.
Why now: The sanctuary proposal's latest rejection and Brazil's vow to keep pushing have put whale protection back in the news.
