        Friend, This past week on the Texas coast, water temperatures dipped below 50 degrees and affected over 2,000 endangered sea turtles. Sea turtles that are „cold stunned“ may try and reach the surface to be warmed by the sun but our air temperature was below freezing. Cold stunned turtles become very lethargic and are more susceptible to boat strikes, predators and even death from exposure. This has become the largest cold stunning event ever recorded on the Texas coast, and we’re expecting another cold front this weekend. Please donate to help our dedicated staff, volunteers, and me rescue these vulnerable sea turtles.Read More →

  Thailand: Ban Elephant Rides     Sign Now       brigitte, How would you like to haul humans on your back through the jungle? We can only imagine the pain and discomfort elephants endure, wrapped in straps and chains that attach big bulky chairs to their bodies while people climb on for a ride. Many elephants in Thailand are expected to work for parks offering an exciting „adventure“ to tourists. These poor animals are often treated cruelly and overworked. Elephants aren’t entertainment and these elephants parks must be closed. These parks are not only inhumane, but they are dangerous to animals and peopleRead More →

täglich verbraucht McDonald’s viele Millionen Plastik-Strohhalme — während immer mehr Schildkröten, Vögel und andere Meerestiere am Plastikmüll in unseren Ozeanen verenden. McDonald’s will bei den Olympischen Winterspielen 2018 als verantwortungsvoller Sponsor glänzen — ein perfekter Zeitpunkt, dem Fast-Food-Riesen einzuheizen. Mehr als 300.000 SumOfUs-Mitglieder fordern McDonald’s bereits auf, den Strohhalmen eine Absage zu erteilen. Machen auch Sie mit? Ja! Auch ich fordere McDonald’s auf, Plastik-Strohhalme aus dem Verkehr zu ziehen. Vielen Dank für Ihre Unterstützung! Wiebke, Rebecca und das SumOfUs-Team Hier noch einmal unsere ursprüngliche E-Mail: Plastik-Strohhalme vermüllen unsere Ozeane und werden für Meeresbewohner zur tödlichen Falle. Trotzdem verkauft McDonald’s sie täglich millionenfach. Rufen Sie McDonald’sRead More →

Liebe Freundinnen und Freunde, jedes Jahr werden 56 Milliarden Tiere in dunkle, dreckige Käfige gepfercht und geschlachtet — nur um unseren Fleischkonsum zu befriedigen. Es ist grausam und es könnten noch Jahre vergehen, bis der Massentierhaltung ein Ende gesetzt wird. Doch eines können wir heute tun, um das zu beschleunigen: weniger Fleisch essen. Es gibt 46 Millionen Avaazer rund um die Welt. Wenn jeder von uns beschließt, auch nur einen Tag in der Woche kein Fleisch zu essen, und dann Freunde, Prominente und viele Unternehmen zum Mitmachen bewegt, könnten wir den größten globalen Vorsatz aller Zeiten ins Leben rufen. Auch Vegetarier und Veganer können dazuRead More →
