**Our Mission Is to help stop shark finning and raise awareness of their decline in numbers and the impact it has on the environment. We will try to get people not to use shark products.**
=__Restated Problem__=

**We found out 100 million sharks are slaughtered every year. They are killed not only for their fins, but for many other reasons.**

 * =====**Skin for shoes, belts and wallets.**=====
 * =====**Teeth for jewelry.**=====
 * =====**Jaws for tourist souvenirs.**=====
 * =====**Cartilage for phony medicines.**=====
 * **Liver oils for cosmetics and skin care.**

**Too many sharks have been slaughtered. We think this is terrible, we would like to persuade people to stop buying these products. Maybe it will cut down on the number of fins being taken.**

6. Listen To Other Peoples Ideas
Shark Finning is when people slice off a shark's fin, and leave the shark to die in the ocean. We have chosen this problem because we all love sharks and do not want them to die out. If the sharks a die out this will also have a huge effect on the sea's life cycle/food web.
