Your Voices Made a Difference!

From Seattle, Washington to Toronto, Canada; from Valencia, Spain to Kyoto, Japan and from a multitude of locations across the world – your voices made a difference.

You showed up and helped educate others why captive dolphins and other whales isn’t entertaining. You explained why their suffering isn’t something that should be celebrated. And, you proved that real change happens with perseverance and faith, versus silence and complacency.

“Empty the Tanks is the largest global event in history that opposes the captivity of marine mammals. A significant part of this success can be attributed to the passionate individuals who consistently show up year after year to help organize and host events in their cities and countries.” ~ Rachel Carbary, Founder of the Empty The Tanks event
