BP Deepwater Horizon Gulf oil spill disaster -- resources to help make a difference
More Information
It has been almost two months since the disastrous BP Deepwater Horizon explosion. The resulting oil spill and its impact continues to grow throughout the Gulf of Mexico and, increasingly, across the nation. EarthEcho International's co-founder and CEO Philippe Cousteau has been working since the early days of the crisis to focus attention on the horrendous environmental damage caused by this disaster. He's also spent time talking with individuals in the affected communities about the heartbreaking impact on their lives. We have a clear choice—continue to pollute our planet or fight for a cleaner world.

Gulf Future Campaign - GulfFuture.org
More Information
Gulf Future is a collaborative effort to raise awareness and increase public support for the communities along the Gulf coast affected by the BP oil drilling disaster. This campaign is the brainchild of the Gulf Coast Fund and the Gulf Restoration Network. In May, several folks from our two organizations took a tour of the devastation developing in the Gulf of Mexico and along the coasts of Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama. Outraged and distressed by what we saw, and anticipating what the future might hold for these communities, GRN and GCF realized that nothing short of a nation-wide outcry about this catastrophe was necessary.
Thus the Gulf Future Campaign was formed. Our vision is a to mobilize supporters from across the nation to show their solidarity with the people of the Gulf Coast.

This site is a joint project between students of Worcester Polytechnic Institute, Dr. Mark Pokras of Tufts University's School of Veterinary Medicine and members of the wildlife rehabilitation community. Currently the site contains baseline hematology data and basic biological information for some avian and mammalian species. As time progresses we will be adding more species as well as information about diseases, parasites, management and current issues for each individual species. We hope to shape the future expansion around the needs of the wildlife rehabilitation community, so please take the time to fill out the survey.
