Petition against shutting down Waddennatuur yields 51,000 signatures

The 'We are the Wadden' campaign has collected almost 51,000 signatures against the closure of nature reserves on the Wadden Islands and on the Frisian coast. The signatures will be presented to the provincial government in Leeuwarden on Tuesday and to the House of Representatives in the afternoon in The Hague. The action is known, among other things, from the flags with the text 'Free birds, caged people' that can be seen in many places on and around the Wadden Sea.
