Question
I'm 60 and a member of Al Gore's Climate Project. I have time and would like to
donate it to an Arctic wildlife preservation group. Can you point me in some
good direction.
Hi Andrew,
First, I think it is great that you are volunteering your time to help our planet and its inhabitants. I wish there were more people like you. My favorite group for wildlife preservation is Sea Shepherd. Paul Watson and his crew truly are hero’s in my book. You can check out the group at the following link. http://www.seashepherd.org/ I’m not very familiar with the Alaska Wildlife Alliance but from reading their site, they seem to have a good grasp on helping wildlife. And another group worth looking into is the Defenders of Wildlife at http://www.defenders.org/ I hope these help with your search to volunteer.
For the Animals,
Robin

Expertise
I can answer general questions about many animal rights topics, to include animals in entertainment, factory farming, vivisection & research, animals used for clothing, veganism, etc.
Experience
I am a true animal lover. I started on my vegetarian path at the age of 12 and am vegan today. I believe we have abused our powers over animals and it is time we make some ethical changes. I choose to fight for animals because it is easier than just sitting around and watching the abuse continue to happen.
Organizations
I am a volunteer member of several organizations to include; PETA, PCRM, Sea Shepherd, Farm Sanctuary, HSUS, MARC, and Grey2K. The closest organization to my heart is The Woodstock Farm Animal Sanctuary. This place is truly amazing and its run by some really cool compassionate people.
