Total ban on ivory trade and save the worlds elephants
The ivory trade is still not completely banned in the U.K. Despite the government pledging this in there manifestos
It just isn't right to kill elephants
Not only should we total ban this horrible trade we should also push to stop the EU trading to Hong Kong
Great Britain was responsible for the murder of over 1,000,000 elephants to make ivory hairbrushes and supply the middle class lives between 1869 - 1920
As world leaders we must help prevent anymore killing of elephants.
The EU trades and exports legal ivory to Hong Kong and other Asian countries, if this was stopped then the money would also stop flowing, making this trade harder to survive.
