MEDIA FOR CONSERVATION was founded on the conviction that media are important tools in conservation.  Our aim is to utilize audio/visual and new social media to promote attitudes of respect toward other species, understanding of the value of biodiversity, and informed action to protect nature.   Our mission is to educate, motivate, and activate people toward good earth stewardship. 

MEDIA FOR CONSERVATION works both independently and in partnership with other conservation organizations.  We create complimentary media to facilitate community based campaigns as well as ongoing national and international conservation efforts.   Additionally, we utilize social media platforms to provide creative and unifying outlets for online community expression.

We all hold great power in the destiny of the planet.  As we witness an unprecedented onslaught of species extinction, habitat destruction, and environmental decay, people everywhere are uniting to find solutions.  Media creators have an enormous capacity, and therefore responsibility, to facilitate positive change for the good of the planet.  MEDIA FOR CONSERVATION invites you to join us in this effort.
Interests:
elephants, african mammals, nature, conservation, wildlife, animal behavior, ecology, environment, natural history,

MediaforConservation, I like your comment on " BOXER PUPPY GREETED BY HERD OF COWS ON WALK! " It's interesting, thanks you for that.

And President Ali Bongo goes on to say "This decision demonstrates my government's commitment to the principal of Gabon Vert -- Green Gabon -- and to the management of our National Parks as both a National and International treasure. I implore ivory importing nations, particularly in Asia, to get serious about addressing this problem, as I am today, and to inform their citizens that the purchase of ivory will be dealt with severely. Ivory smuggling rings are working in a concerted fashion internationally, law enforcement must do the same. Gabon cannot fight this problem alone".

Okay world, let's get on board. Why is only Gabon doing this?

Gabon creates army to combat poaching. "President Ali Bongo Ondimba announced the immediate creation of a 240-man military unit, a "Jungle Brigade", to support the National Parks Agency that will be charged with shoring up the parks and stopping elephant poaching and other wildlife related crime in Gabon. President Bongo underlined the fact that "Wildlife protection and the preservation of natural resources generally is the great challenge of our time. If we lose our elephants we will enter the same spiral that has seen wildlife and natural resources plundered elsewhere in Africa, with the inevitable consequence of political instability and conflict in dysfunctional ecosystems where man can no longer live sustainably in harmony with nature. Today I have undertaken to create an elite military unit that will be signed into law this month, which will support our National Parks Agency in their critical work to manage Gabon's natural treasures.

This beautiful sculpture, made by a 15-year-old Zambian child named Malafian, is being auctioned to support the child who made it and the wildlife he loves.

The story of his art is poetic and ironic. For the wire that Malafian used in making his sculptures came from illegal wildlife snares that were confiscated from poachers. Malafian's aim was to transform a malicious weapon into a benevolent piece of art. Malafian himself has hope that in offering his art in this auction, he can help raise awareness about the cruelty of snaring and the problems of poaching in his homeland of Zambia. Malafian intends to make a difference. And we can help him do so.

Transformation is contagious. We all have the capacity to turn cold, cruel, metal into objects of art. Thank you, Malafian, for reminding us of this.
