Finalement, l'échafaudage autour de la statue de Leifur Eriksson n'aura pas tenu longtemps. J'ai fait le tour et ... Moui, bon, ils ont fait un petit savonnage du bazar mais rien de sensationnel.

Côté météo, aaaah, le beau temps revient doucement ! Et j'espère qu'il sera de la partie car on va entrer lundi dans une des meilleures semaines de ce début d'année : en Islande, les jeudi saint, vendredi saint et lundi de pâques sont fériés ! :hakase:

The whaling season is cancelled for second consecutive year in Iceland.

Iceland's largest whaling company – Hvalur hf. – will not be hunting this season. This marks the second consecutive year that the company has opted out of whaling during the summer season.

The controversial practice of ‘whaling’, hunting and killing whales to extract and sell their meat is currently only permitted in Iceland, Norway and Japan.

It was confirmed yesterday that Hvalur hf will not hunt fin whales this summer 💙

According to Kristján Loftsson, it’s because of the situation with the Japanese markets (no buyers) as well as the tariff race which is not improving the situation.

We celebrate these news and are happy to know that fin whales will not be hunted in Iceland for the second year in a row 🐋

No whaling this summer from icelandic boats

The last decision of the former government, to allow whaling for 5 years, caused much uproar. In part because it appeared to be part of a behind the scenes deal.

But also because of shifting attitudes, towards protection of marine mammals.

Now the company Hvalur, who got the licence to kill whales announced no-season.

Yeah
