Heart Beats For Change

Heart Beats For Change

Heart Beats For Change – On November 14, 2013 – I wrote a comment – addressed to China – asking them to close down their ivory carving factories and burn their stockpiles of ivory. I made a commitment to post the same comment every day for one year. It got a couple of comments and a share or two.

I soon added another comment – asking that Lucy the elephant who is a prisoner in the Edmonton Zoo and Limba in The Bowmanville Zoo – be freed to a sanctuary. Lucy remains shivering in western Canada – Limba is dead. As the year went by I added more posts every day. My sole objective was to make people think about animals and how we are treating them all over the world. How do we all contribute to animal cruelty?

I eventually named these daily posts Heart Beats For Change. There are now 35 of them. I used to post them all every day but this task became too time consuming – about an hour and a quarter every morning. So I scaled them back and started to post them in groups. Over time they were commented upon and shared widely.

At the end of 2014 – I will come up with a new plan for Heart Beats For Change – but for those who are interested – here they are in their entirety!

Enjoy …   

HEART BEATS FOR CHANGE – The Beauty Of Animals & Nature – I post messages every day – they have become a Daily Meditation. Some are seasonal or event specific – and will change. I do these as I sip coffee with my fur boys at my feet. Their sole purpose is to create awareness in our common goal of helping animals and to make people “think” – comment or share if you care …

WHITE - BEARS

HEART BEATS FOR CHANGE – R.I.P. SATAO – Let the brutal murder of magnificent Satao be the tipping point in our current global tolerance of government corruption, terrorism, the vulgar ivory trade – poachers – anyone who traffics in ivory and ALL users of ivory carvings and trinkets. CHINA & the USA = the 2 biggest ivory users in the world. ENOUGH!

Satao

HEART BEATS FOR CHANGE – CHINA & VIETNAM – when will you stop killing elephants and rhinos . CHINA has 37 ivory carving factories & 130 ivory retail outlets. CHINA could end this crisis overnight. Where is your moral compass – it has been lost along with your honour! You hide behind “culture and tradition” – you are NOT deserving of respect …

LION 48

HEART BEATS FOR CHANGE – CACH – Canned Lion Hunting is a disgrace in South Africa. Captive bred lions are exploited from birth to death – first by lion farmers and then by the foreign tourist trophy hunters who murder them. The propaganda of the canned lion industry about “lion conservation” and “being a benefit to local economies” are lies – CANNED LION HUNTING MUST BE BANNED. Our lions deserve better than this! Get involved at – www.cannedlion.org

HEART BEATS FOR CHANGE – SKINNED ALIVE – CAN YOU EVEN BEGIN TO IMAGINE THE PAIN – IF YOU WEAR OR BUY FUR – YOU AGREE WITH THIS APPALLING CRUELTY – SO AT LEAST HAVE THE COURAGE TO LOOK AT IT. HOW DO YOU THINK ANAL ELECTROCUTION OR BEING CAUGHT IN A SHARP STEEL TRAP OR BEING SKINNED ALIVE REALLY “FEELS” … THINK .

For every one of you engaged in ANY way in the vile fur industry – who design and wear the garments – who claim there is no cruelty – who check your trapping lines every 3 days – who vilify people who believe in animal rights – who spout your rhetoric about conservation and sustainable use and human superiority – who think that animals need to be managed – who discredit the organizations who do the secret filming on fur farms – who spread lies about the welfare of animals on fur farms – and especially all of you who profess to love and respect animals – hang your heads in SHAME … these animals are not forgotten when they are gone – you who used and abused them – will be!
