I discovered Jane Goodall's webpage the other day. She is a remarkable woman, a role-model for girls and young women, a top scientist, and a mover for peace and animal protection.
She has a page describing various ways each of us can help the environment, people and animals. One of the important things she encourages is reducing or cutting out meat consumption completely.
On her webpage one can even adopt a chimpanzee. Of course adopting, doesn't mean taking it home to the comforts of your suburban house, but rather supporting it financially so that it can live in one of her natural sanctuaries in Africa.
Amazingly, Jane will be in South Africa this month. She will be at Umhloti Lodge, Nelspruit on the 20th, the Johannesburg Zoo on the 22nd, and in Grahamstown, SciTek, on the 25th. Please go listen to her lectures if you can and tell me about it! (unfortunately I can't go)
