Should Australia take an aggressive stance against Japanese whalers?

Yes, take a tough active stances on all excessive fishing within Continental Australia and Australian territory waters

Not exactly, but prevent whaling in Australian waters, and take a diplomatic approach to discourage whaling.

I don't agree with whaling but we can't be telling other cultures what to do when we still let our native people kill endangered animals like sea turtles and dugongs... So no.

The Australian government taking aggressive stances on other countries' environmental damage is deeply hypocritical given its track record, especially in the oceans

No, but make them pay taxes in our waters.

Allow certain species of whales to be harvested

Compromise with the Japanese dudes. It’s not hard.

I need to know how serious this issue is

An active stance should be taken but not in a aggressive manner

Yes, when it violates our own waters, and we should work diplomatically with other nations to find alternatives to current natural and living resource depletion

Yes, however, the "aggressiveness" shouldn't be taking military actions, or shooting the Japanese Whalers.

Support more humane methods and a cap on the number based on observed populations and limit impacts on breeding Cycles

Take an active stance specifically against commercial whaling. Traditional hunting practices are not equivalent to commercially hunting endangered species to near extinction

This shouldn’t be simply an Australian issue, this is global issue. We must do what we can with our resources and not exert those

Yes, if it is creating a large pollution issue or putting any creatures on a possible extinction watchlist

we have Isolationism Full-Bore non-stop.

Discourage whaling in general.

Enforce whaling only in Japanese waters. Assist the Japanese in a sustainability program.

Develop sustainable whaling to reduce the current decimation of tuna stocks.
