I will never forget the solid white dog I met at the animal shelter who was deaf. The shelter had orriginally thought
the dog had a stand-offish unresponsive personality and were about to put her down. I pointed out that instead the
dog may actually be deaf. It turned out she was and I helped save a sweet loving life and, along with another observant
shelter worker, reunite her with her owner :) Read more about deaf dogs at www.deafdogs.org

The ultimate goal of an animal shelter is to put themselves out of work by ending the problem of unwanted animals.
Even big cats end up in shelters. Unwanted as adults and raised by humans, these cats are unable to survive in the
wild. Tours and volunteer oppertunities to work with the big cats available!

Easy tips anyone can do to help save endangered species:

other animals and cause harm

recycle: think of all the plastic bottles & bags seen in parks and floating in water; recycling paper saves trees

every little bit helps!
Attention Coffee Drinkers!
Here's a simple way to help our planet and save endangered
species of animals and plants. Are you a coffee drinker? Want to help the environment? You can make a huge difference in conserving
the environment through the choices you make buying coffee. Read about growing techniques, how they affect flavor, and
more. Learn more here:
(This is a time sensitive issue, so be sure to take into account the date on posts, particularly in blog sites. Remember,
companies can change.)
Coffee farms and the demand for coffee is making a huge impact on the environment and wildlife
habitat, and yes, Starbucks does carry some Shade Grown Organic Coffees :) The consumer makes a huge difference, show support
for farmers who grow coffee in a way that shows concern for the environment.
Research the growing techniques of your favorite brands of coffee.
Also look for
Shade
Grown Organic Coffees
Rainforest Alliance Certified eco-label
Bird Friendly certification labels
Greater awareness, and possibly making a change, in the way you buy coffee can make a huge difference. Want to do
more? If they don't already, ask that your favorite brands post info about growing techniques
used by the farmers they buy beans from on their website, and requests that they supply coffee grown from environmentally
responsible growers of sustainable coffee. Spread the word, save the world!
