Sir, Though the history of the International Whaling Commission (IWC) has been one of too little too late, it has at least stopped the extinction of some species. The moratorium on commercial whaling has been moderately successful. I cannot say totally successful because whaling has continued under the guise of ‘scientific whaling’ by Japan and Norway, while other countries have given up whaling altogether.
