If there is no demand, the issue should resolve itself. Without demand you cannot support the cost of these operations. so either it will destroy itself or the demand is greater than what is reported.

日本在低需求的情況下恢復商業捕鯨?
日本想要炫耀，就像那些日子(從1890年到1945年)一樣。

There is no need for this. This isn't for a need to feed people this is simply to feed rich people's desire to have a niche meat. No need at all for this.
沒有必要這樣做。這不是為了滿足人們的需要，這只是為了滿足富人利基肉的願望。完全沒有必要這樣做。（譯者：利基（niche）是指針對企業的優勢細分出來的市場，這裡猜測是指特別的肉類）

It just seems like the world is heading back to the 80s, because apparently Crystal Pepsi and fearing Russians is cool again.
世界似乎又回到了80年代，因為很明顯，水晶百事可樂和恐蘇再次變酷了。（譯者：水晶百事可樂是93年推出的一款無色可樂，僅3年就退出了市場）

The Japanese can now use their warships to protect their whaling fleet. In the Antarctic they could not use navy units as they are prohibited. Demand will increase as supply goes up and there is no stopping them now.
日本人現在可以用他們的軍艦來保護他們的捕鯨船隊。在南極，他們不能使用海軍部隊，因為他們是被禁止的。需求會隨著供給的增加而增加，現在沒有辦法阻止它們。

It just feels so wrong.
只是感覺如此的錯誤

Denmark, Norway, and Iceland have been whaling since before the international agreement was created, and they never stopped... I don't see any outrage about that
丹麥、挪威和冰島在國際協議簽署之前就開始捕鯨，而且從未停止過捕鯨活動。我沒有看到任何憤怒
Anna
Well, scratch that country off my list of places to visit
好吧，把那個國家從我的旅遊名單上劃掉

當國際捕鯨委員會暫停商業捕鯨時，計劃是在鯨魚數量恢復到足以支持可持續捕鯨的時候再恢復捕鯨。在南極有兩種不同的礦鯨種群，它們都在增長，而當時日本正在進行研究捕鯨。這證明應該取消禁令，代之以有規則的捕獵。有些種類的鯨魚正在繁殖，其數量足以維持有限的捕獲量，而其他種類的鯨魚則沒有。國際捕鯨委員會的成立是為了支持捕鯨業，而不是為了結束捕鯨業。

So the Chinese are eating less shark fin soup and reducing ivory consumption while the Japanese are trying to encourage whale meat consumption? Man...
所以中國人少吃魚翅湯，減少象牙消費，而日本人卻在鼓勵鯨魚肉消費?人類……（譯者：見到誇中國人的，就很開心）

"It is a win-win solution that results in a better situation for whales, a better situation for Japan, a better situation for international marine conservation efforts and is therefore to be welcomed."One would never guess from the IWC's unhappiness over Japan's withdrawal.
"這是一個雙贏的解決方案，可以為鯨魚、日本、國際海洋保護工作帶來更好的局面，因此值得歡迎。"
從國際捕鯨委員會對日本退出的不滿中，我們永遠猜不到。
Heisenberg
They need to send those Whaling ships to the US. We got more than our fair share of whales!
他們需要把那些捕鯨船派到美國。我們捕到的鯨魚比我們應得的還多!

Submarines have torpedo's right?
潛艇有魚雷對吧?

Here's to hoping the end to whaling comes sooner than anyone is predicting.
希望捕鯨業的終結比任何人預測的都要早。
