Help a Critter Out! Username: Mewsings of An Angel Preference List: 2, 3, 4, A, 1,B Advocating For: Honey bees What's Your Plan?: I've always loved bees, despite that they potentially sting. But I've planted flowers just for them in front of my home to help feed them! There's a giant bee hive in the tree out front too. Very active!

Help a Critter Out! Username: CitrusCupcake Preference List: 2, 1, 4, 3, A, B Advocating For: Bees & Butterflies What's Your Plan?: To have a semi wild garden, I had one in my previous home and the insects loved it, especially the bees. So we have planted attracting flower seeds, and we're not cutting our clover patches as the bees are currently really liking those.

Help a Critter Out! Username: Ebonrune Preference List: 2, 4, B, A, 1, 3 Advocating For: The ocean What's Your Plan?: Educate people on the fact that the greatest threat to the marine ecosystem is fishing nets and plastic bags, since many people believe that eliminating things such as disposable straws--which many disabled people depend on because of their flexibility, which other kinds of straws do not offer--is the way to be helpful, when straws and other such small plastics make up less than 1% of ocean waste and are not even close to as harmful as a whale being tangled in a net, or a turtle mistaking a plastic bag for a jellyfish.

Help a Critter Out! Username: Revolutionary Roniel Preference List: 2, 4, B, reroll Advocating For: My local beach! What's Your Plan?: I pick up garbage off the beach when I go for walks on my local beach. This prevents plastics and other harmful trash from entering the water and keeps local wildlife from ingesting it or getting entangled.

Help a Critter Out! Username: Twitchapher the 3rd Preference List: 4, 1, 2, B, A, 3 Advocating For: Earth What's Your Plan?: We only have one planet and we need to protect it. Waste reduction, education, less dependence on fossil fuels, reducing our carbon emissions, holding corporation accountable for their pollution, reducing pesticides(Looking at you golf courses!). Even just turning the thermostat down two degrees will help. If everyone does a little, it adds up to a lot.

Help a Critter Out! Username: SylverStar Preference List: 1,2,3,4,A,B Advocating For: Lost City in Honduras "La Ciudad Blanca." What's Your Plan?: One of the reasons this area has been able to keep species thriving is because of it's remote location. People can have a devastating impact on environments. Advocate for remote places to stay remote. Not building infrastructure in places like this. Deforestation threatens this place. It is the most undisturbed rainforest in Central America and is protected. However deforestation continues in the forest to make way for cattle ranching. Beef is a big market there. I will continue to advocate for lessening meat intake. Also the Honduran government doesn't have the money to help keep this place protected. Advocating for international aid to places like this is important. We want to still have this place exist in a decade from now. Also working towards not being complacent by "doing my part" as that is only a tiny bit. But push for bigger players to do their part too. We need more policy changes

Help a Critter Out! Username: ~Twilight...Angel~ Preference List: 2, 4, 1, B, 3, A Advocating For: All Animals What's Your Plan?: The biggest way we can help all animals, big and small, is to simply educate people. I know there aren't supposed to be monetary ones on here, but another big thing that tends to help is when people create sanctuaries to help breed this animals and release them back into the wild. For the Ocean animals we really need to be more conscious in general about where all of our waste goes and what we can do in our own everyday lives to actually cut down on waste.

Help a Critter Out! Username: Keantha Preference List: 2, 4, B, 3, A, 1 Advocating For: Rainforest/Trees What's Your Plan?: Most of the oxygen on our planet is created/recycled by the massive rainforest that are slowly disappearing. I read about this one man that bought several hundred acres of land ins south America. In 18 years of care, a barren land became a massive rainforest again just by his planting and tending each day. We can all plant trees!

Help a Critter Out! Username: Valdmir Talamore Preference List: 2,1, B,A reroll Advocating For: Sea Turtles!! What's Your Plan?: The plan is reduce plastic waste. THIS IS THE LAST STRAW. I actually started to use reusable items that normally would become plastic waste. One of these items is a reusable straw. I have also recently written some of the local food eateries asking them to do all they can to reduce plastic waste as well providing them information on alternatives to commonly used plastic waste products.

Help a Critter Out! Username: Inari Miko Preference List: 3, 2, B, A, re-roll Advocating For: Water Conservation What's Your Plan?: Whenever it's about to rain, I leave out buckets to collect the rainwater which I set aside to water my plants with. I also save whatever water I've washed the rice or cooked pasta in to water the garden with as well (in the case of the cooking water, I let it cool first before using). Even the fish tanks play a role when I do partial water changes; I keep the "old" tank water for watering the plants! I also try to take shorter showers to reduce the amount of water I use.

Help a Critter Out! Username: Lunadriel Preference List: A Advocating For: Florida Sandhill Crane What's Your Plan?: Spread awareness about them. Mostly, don't feed them, and don't use Round Up fertilizer on your lawn if you live in an area near a pond or lake. The fertilizer gets in the water, and causes algae to infest the waters. Also, get people to SLOW DOWN when driving near areas where they live.

Help a Critter Out! Username: Fayt_of_Redemption Preference List: 2, 1, 4, 3, B, A Advocating For: The Oceans What's Your Plan?: Recycling items, esp plastic ones such as bottles and bags and avoiding their use where possible. Also plastic take out containers have become increasingly popular. I keep mine and use them over and over for food storage and such. I also support organizations that clean up the ocean by purchasing items that are made from recycled material pulled from the ocean.
