A New Dawn For Wildlife – Obama

cover of The Herald

Thanks to all who voted Obama to be our next president. This is a historic moment for the American people as much as for wildlife conservation and the environment. Also with more key environmental leaders now in control of Congress, we hope for a better chance for dialogue and to restore policies that will protect animals, address global warming and the energy crisis in meaningful ways. This is no doubt, one of the biggest victories in our time. Watch this video here, director of Defenders of Wildlife speaks about all this. It’s a new beginning for something great, for humans and animals. Just MAYBE, wolves and polar bears will have a chance. (Sorry Sarah Palin!)

VOTE

Please vote on Nov 4. While this election never focused on wildlife conservation, which is a huge disappointment as it is closely tied with global warming and environmental issues, I’d still vote for Obama since the Republicans have a long history of pro-NRA stance and tend to opt for more environmental disasters. Palin represents all that’s wrong for animal rights – advocating the shooting of wolves, an endangered species, as well as other wildlife in her state. If you’re undecided on whom to vote for but care about animals, please vote Obama. (For those who feel the need to rebut, please note that this is solely an animal issue, nothing else. I leave everyone to vote for issues most dear to them. Republican or Democrat or any other party.

One Reason to Vote For Obama

This is a not my platform for politics, but I would like to encourage those who are undecided but care about the environment and wildlife to vote for Barack Obama. Certainly there are many issues in our country today that need reform such as education, healthcare, foreign relations, human equality, etc. Even as animals (unfortunately) come second before people, we must NOT forget about them. The Democratic ticket’s stance on the promise to address global warming and the path to a cleaner environment will directly impact wildlife and their welfare on earth on both an international and national level. If this is an important issue for you, vote Barack Obama in November!
