Save Birds Here

Challenges Entered: 
1. Data and information re the bird die-off and how it can be prevented.2. Data and information re elected officials and how to contact them. Onsite text set-up to either click-and-send or modify-click-and-send.3. Site visitors could have the option to "meet up."I expect there may be other information.



What else have you done in this area of work?


I've developed a campaign outline and drafted rhetoric I hope the 12 Oregon Audubon Chapters will consider at their semi-annual meeting in April. As a non-profit we have to be careful about how much political activism we are involved in.

Project Details
Project video: 
Project Assessment
Financial support: 
Project has financial support
Project goals: 
We can conserve American natural and urban habitats so more birds, and humans can thrive.We can model activism initially focused on an immediate crisis that will result in a general good. Consider how birds and humans share exactly the same life-support system. What we do for [name of animal here] we do for ourselves.We will strengthen the connection between a crisis (ex. bird die-off) and direct political advocacy. Responders use onsite text to briefly describe the crisis and urge their elected officials to sponsor legislation. Resonders don't have to join a group, pay dues, go to meetings etc..We can create a mashup template which can be used for similar crises (ex. concentrations of breast and prostate cancer victims) and resources (ex. places with little or no incidence of cancer). 
Identified Obstacles: 
And indication of its feasibility. Suggestions about data bases that could be mashed. An estimate of its costs. Help building a dramatic and motivating site.Essentially a proposal I could take to funders.
