Condemn Chinese for use of rhino horn, tiger bone and ivory

Additional Information

To condemn the Chinese government and threaten economic sanctions unless more is done in China to stamp out the illegal trade in rhino horn, tiger bones, ivory and other 'products' from threatened species. The rise in Chinese prosperity is directly threatening the continued existence of these species, especially rhinos, tigers and elephants, because the nouveau riche want ivory ornaments, and because they continue in the superstitious belief in the medical efficacy of powdered tiger bone and rhino horn.
