Dear Loretta
There is lots of information on human impacts on the WhaleNet website. You
need to think about what all the possible impacts are. Here's a short list
of categories to search:
whaling
pollution
fishing gear entanglements (whales getting caught in lines and nets, etc.)
ship collisions at sea
oil spills
global warming
I would search under these and other similar topics for blue, humpback and
minke whales and you will find lots of information.
Try these WhaleNet pages as starting points:
How to Find page: http://whale.wheelock.edu/howtofind.html
Species information page:
http://whale.wheelock.edu/whalenet-stuff/classifications.html
Good luck with your project.
