In a recent trip to India, Prince William and Princess Kate visited Kaziranga National Park to spread awareness about conservation. William is very outspoken about his passion for wildlife conservation, supporting and campaigning for organizations such as United for Wildlife and Tusk, so it only makes sense that he would include conservation in his trip. However, the couple learned that an adult male rhinoceros was poached just hours after their visit.
At Precious Plastics , they want everyone to recycle plastic. Themselves. This young man has designed a series of machines to recycle plastic products in their very own homes. Pretty awesome if you ask me. Especially since experts now say that there will soon be more plastic than fish in the ocean.
Speaking of fish, if you care about the health of the ocean, you're familiar with the Marine Stewardship Council. Their little blue emblem let's you know if the seafood you're picking up in the store is sustainable. Well, now McDonald's will be making sure all of their fish has that little blue emblem! McDonalds is one of the largest single buyers of fish in the US, so to me, this is quite the victory!
To end on an even happier note, according the the World Wildlife Fund, wild tiger numbers are growing for the first time in 100 years. That's grrrrrrreat!
Thanks for reading everyone!
