*[Enwl-eng] Lobsters and crabs are tortured to death right now

[ENWLine]

This cruelty could end in the UK with your help! Lobsters and Crabs Are Sentient. Yet Restaurants Keep Boiling Them Alive and Torturing Them to Death.      Sign Now        For decades, animal rights activists have been shedding light on the ways that non-human living things experience emotion, pain, and suffering. Finally, a massive report by the London School of Economics -- which compiled over 300 scientific studies -- confirmed what animal welfare organizations have been saying for years: that cephalopods and decapods can experience pain, and should be treated as sentient beings.   Sign now to demand that the UK Parliament pass The Animal Welfare Sentience Bill to protect crabs and lobsters from being boiled alive!   The food industry has been trying to convince the public that lobsters "don't really feel pain" for generations. But the science is on our side, and confirms that those are lies. Lobsters trapped in vats of boiling, bubbling water trying desperately to escape can obviously feel pain. Hundreds of scientific studies now confirm it.   Luckily, legislators in the UK can act. The UK Parliament can pass the Animal Welfare Sentience Bill and effectively end the boiling of lobsters immediately. But if they don't hear our voices, British lawmakers could easily be swayed by the powerful representatives of the restaurant and fishmonger industries. Sign now to tell the UK Parliament: torture of crabs and lobsters is inhumane! Thank you, Kelsey Care2 Petitions Team P.S. We need to make sure lobsters aren't condemned to lives (and deaths) of misery because they are not "cute" enough to be protected.
