Wild Spots Foundation

I was asked to choose between Greenpeace, National Resource Defense Council, and the Wild Spots Foundation to determine which organization I would like to join. The Green peace organization concentrates on restoring the planet through methods such as reducing pollution and creating awareness. The National Resource Defense Council focuses on protecting our natural resources in America. My choice was the Wild Spots foundation because its mission is to restore biodiversity and to remind us, humans, that we are not the only ones inhabiting this planet. This organization focuses on restoring animal habitats and protecting endangered species. It promotes its projects through photography and encourages ecotourism.
I found an interesting Kenyan proverb on their website: "The earth was not given to you by your parents; it was lent to you by your children".
I think this definitely opens our eyes to a new perspective and gives us new values and insights that motivate us to protect our earth for the generations to come.
