One Minute Brief of the Day: Create posters to promote @Chapter2Dating The community and dating app / platform built by widows for widows and widowers. #Chapter2Dating

After the initial shock, grief and heartache in losing your life partner and having your life irrevocably change, we inevitably take steps to move forward and find new meaning in life.

Chapter 2 can be friendship, companionship, dating or physical comfort, it means different things to different people. And we are calling on the OMBLES to help spread the word.

Today’s brief is an important one for a subject that is not often talked about.

Our friend, Nicky Wake, has channeled her energies into creating an apps to help widows find love and/or companionship once again. Read her story here https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/real-life-stories/after-losing-husband-49-years-28411612

She’s been doing some amazing stuff to promote the app, including TV appearances, and is now hooking up with the OMBLES for an exciting partnership today. As well as this, she has also been busy creating Widows Fire, which is all about bringing the excitement & human connection back into your life in a non-judgmental and supportive space.

We’re excited to see the ideas blossoming and how you can help us to spread the word far and wide.

We don’t want to shy away from the facts. We want to see big, bold ideas and you can have some humour and cheekiness (within reason) too!

What is Chapter 2?

Chapter 2 can mean different things to different people, be that friendship, companionship, support, dating or physical comfort. 

Using mainstream friendship and dating apps can be distressing and finding understanding is a little like trying to find a needle in a haystack. We believe widows and widowers are uniquely placed to understand each other and will respect the others need to grieve, remember and mourn what has gone before whilst making steps forward. 

Founded by Nicky Wake, Chapter 2 is also part funded by two other widows, with the support of many more. We all want to be a part of trying to help you navigate your loss and find comfort and hope for the future.

You can also find out more about Nicky’s other app/platform below.

WidowsFire is brought to you by the team behind Chapter 2 – the community built by widows, for widows and widowers. 

We listened to our Chapter 2 members. We listened to the community in forums and on social media. We surveyed over 500 widows and widowers. We realised that many widows and widowers weren’t quite ready for a committed ‘chapter 2’ relationship, but instead wanted and needed physical comfort, a human connection in a non-judgmental and supportive space. WidowsFire was born in the hopes to fill that void.

One Minute Brief of the Day: Create posters to show how connected we all are to rainforests + how we all must play our part in protecting and restoring them as #GuardiansOfTheForest with @IAR_updates

It’s a wild world out there OMBLES… and we need to protect it! That’s why we’ve got just the brief to show the world some love with International Animal Rescue and communicate how you, friends, family and more can all become dedicated guardians of the forest this World Rainforest Day!

Today, on World Rainforest Day, we are officially launching Guardians of the Forest. This is a community of empowered people who believe that there is hope in action and that together we can find lasting solutions to the threats of climate change and biodiversity loss.

Not only are rainforests one of nature’s best defences against climate change with their carbon-absorbing superpowers, they also are home to around 40,000 plant species, nearly 1,300 bird species, 3,000 types of fish, 427 species of mammals, and 2.5 million different insects.

We work together with the communities that live on the borders of these beautiful rainforests to protect and conserve threatened species and their habitats, as well as improving people with sustainable livelihoods and opportunities.

But we also want to raise awareness to how wherever you are in the world, everyone has a part to play and can make a difference. Whether that’s supporting our project work or lessening your impact on the environment, we can all play a part in protecting our planet.

Which is why we need the OMBLES help to spread this important message! Please get involved today!

3rd Place: £50 in cash!!

About the Campaign:

At International Animal Rescue, we are working for a world where humans and animals can co-exist in sustainable ecosystems. We believe in taking a holistic approach, which allows us to find solutions that really work. By listening to and working with local indigenous communities, we implement effective systems that ensure we are looking at the bigger picture and addressing the root cause of the problem to ensure sustainable and effective change.

‘Guardians of the Forest’ aims to highlight our ‘Guardians on the Ground’ involved in our conservation and education and outreach projects (such as: mangrove restoration, tree planting, scholarship programmes, gender empowerment programmes, training in alternative livelihoods, orangutan conservation etc.) as well as everyone’s individual opportunity to be a Guardian in their everyday life (ie. through simple activities such as recycling, buying second hand, cutting out single use plastics, etc – we all have a part to play).

We have learnt that everything is connected and that by looking after local communities we can in turn protect habitats and our planets biodiversity. We also believe that this connection extends to include everyone, everywhere around round the world – the actions we take collectively can make a difference and we should feel empowered, hopeful and united.

Our Guardians of the Forest programme will raise awareness of our compassionate holistic conservation projects as well as asking people to sign up to join us in spreading the word, supporting our work and taking small actions to play their part. 

About World Rainforest Day

World Rainforest Day falls on June 22 and is dedicated to promoting the protection of rainforests through increased awareness and action. Rainforests are a crucial part of the climate crisis solution – they are vitally important if we are to have any hope for the future. We must all play our part in protecting the precious areas of rainforest still left standing, today and every day.

One Minute Brief of the Day: Create posters with @RnfrstAlliance to celebrate the local communities who care for the Earth’s precious rainforests ahead of tomorrow’s #WorldRainforestDay

Hey OMBLES, to celebrate World Rainforest Day tomorrow, our friends at the Rainforest Alliance have an inspiring brief for you!  

You can probably tell from their name that the Rainforest Alliance really (like really) love rainforests, but they want your help sharing a message that they are just as passionate about: We need thriving people for a thriving planet. 

That’s why we’re asking you to honour the heroes who play a vital—and often overlooked role—in stewarding the Earth’s most important forests: farming and forest communities. 

We’re looking for the OMBLES to help us show the world that people and nature can thrive together in harmony. In celebrating the people who look after our rainforests, you support their mission to protect forests while promoting the rights and well-being of rural communities.

Runner-Up: £200!!

Key points: Don’t forget the frog! 

  • Please include the Rainforest Alliance’s logo: You might recognise this cute little frog from your favourite Rainforest Alliance Certified coffee, tea, or cocoa (and thousands more products). The Rainforest Alliance chose the frog because it’s a “bioindicator species”, meaning its presence shows that an ecosystem is thriving.

  • Check out the Rainforest Alliance brand book for an easy guide on how to use their frog logo.

Font

  • Our font, Poppins, is also available for anyone to use and free to download from Google Fonts here.

  • Black and forest colours are used with light backgrounds and the lime (light green) is used with dark backgrounds.

     

Thriving Communities for Healthy Forests 

Life on Earth is a dance of interdependence—people and nature do best when co-existing in harmony. The Rainforest Alliance has worked to protect tropical forests for more than 35 years and we’ve seen first-hand that rural communities can achieve astounding conservation successes when sustainably managing natural resources. 

For example, in Guatemala’s iconic Maya Biosphere Reserve—the largest tropical forest north of the Amazon—the Rainforest Alliance’s partner communities have maintained a near-zero deforestation rate for nearly 20 years across an area spanning 353,000 hectares. This is a remarkable feat given that neighbouring areas suffer some of the highest deforestation rates in the Americas. The secret: a community forestry model where local communities have government permission to make a living from timber and other forest products, like ramón nuts and palm fronds—as long as they do so sustainably. 

Or just look to Lampung, Indonesia, where the Rainforest Alliance partners with local farmers to protect Bukit Barisan Seletan National Park—a rainforest paradise home to rare Sumatran elephants, tigers, and rhino. Sadly, much of the park has been lost to commercial coffee cultivation, but our community partners are committed to more sustainable ways of growing your favourite beans. Together, we’ve planted hundreds of thousands of tree seedlings in the areas surrounding the park—carefully selecting tree species that attract birds and pollinators and support healthy soil.   


About the Rainforest Alliance 

The Rainforest Alliance is an international non-profit spanning nearly 60 countries. We partner with farmers and forest communities in many of the world’s most important tropical landscapes—working together to promote land management practices that protect nature while boosting rural livelihoods. We work with companies, big and small, to advance responsible business practices across global supply chains. At the same time, we work with governments and civil society organizations—at both the local and international level—to drive sustainability transformation through strengthened policies. And last but not least, we mobilize millions of individuals to harness their collective power as consumers and make better choices for people and nature. Are you with us?

Prize:

£100 cash for today’s winner!!

Background

The advertising industry is a creative jungle where the roar of the lions dominates. However, it is essential to remind all the other animals in the jungle that their voices matter too, and that even the tiniest whisper echoes loudly. 

The Loudest Roar invites individuals from all backgrounds to share their perspectives, and decide what they consider as great work deserving of awards. Together, they will establish their own benchmarks for what inspires them and become more opinionated about their choices.

Therefore, The Loudest Roar is teaming up with OMBLES to raise awareness about its platform (https://www.TheLoudestRoar.io) and encourage advertising professionals to confidently share their predictions on who deserves to win the Cannes Lions Grand Prixs this year.

Audience

This campaign is for every advertising professional who has something to say and wants their voice to be heard. They are the underdogs, eager to explore the creative jungle and make their presence felt. Our goal is to motivate them to fearlessly contribute their ideas, engage in meaningful conversations, and leave their mark on the industry.

Goal

Raise awareness about the initiative and inspire advertising professionals to speak up and share their opinions on The Loudest Roar and beyond in their daily lives  - https://www.TheLoudestRoar.io


Dos

  • Use The Loudest Roar’s logo

  • Keep it fun and light-hearted

Donts

  • Insult or derogate Cannes Lions or its judges. This platform’s intention is not to replace the judging system but rather invite the entire industry into the discussion as well


About The Loudest Roar

The Loudest Roar is a fantasy league for Cannes Lions, created by four UAE-based junior creatives as a passion project. The gamified platform invites everyone to judge, discuss, dissect, and bet on which work will win the Grand Prix. It's a space where everyone's voice matters, inspiring participants to create great work themselves.

Participants can also learn tips and tricks from past Lions, including esteemed jury presidents like Rob Schwartz, Tracey Follows, Ronald Ng, Alice Chou, and PJ Pereira, to find their sources of inspiration.

Winners of The Loudest Roar stand a chance to win prizes of up to $500 in Amazon gift cards and a portfolio revamp by Pimp My Portfolio. Within just two weeks of its launch, The Loudest Roar has already attracted over 350 players across 16 countries. It boasts 12 Cannes Lions judges sharing their tips and tricks and an active community engaging in discussions and predictions.

Following this year's awards festival, The Loudest Roar will invite this year's jury members to share revelations about the official Grand Prix selections. These sessions will also unveil the choices of emerging talents and foster discussions on differences in perspectives, contributing to a research case on how the industry thinks and chooses the best work.

Ultimately, The Loudest Roar aims to be a year-round community that inspires, educates, and provides networking opportunities, allowing participants to continuously grow and connect with like-minded individuals.

*The Loudest Roar is not affiliated with Cannes Lions or the employed agencies of its team.

One Minute Brief of the Day: Create posters for Body Image mentoring charity @BeenThere_App for their campaign to help people get #BeachMindReady so they have a summer of fun not fear.

The summer can be a really triggering time for people with body image issues. As temperatures rise and clothes come off, the anxieties kick in. Why is swimwear season so daunting? Because the media ingrains an often unattainable ideal into our minds about what our bodies should be like! Bombarded by ads for diet pills, articles for ‘beach body ready’ exercise plans or filtered up social posts, we are all being told we are wrong.

This has to stop!! We need to change the national conversation to not getting beach body ready but getting BEACH MIND READY!

To be beach mind ready means achieving a positive state of body-acceptance that frees you from the fears (and overthinking!) that stop you enjoying your summer! The summer is about laughs not looks, about memories not muscles!

Therefore, Been There is teaming up with the OMBLES to raise awareness of its service by starting a national conversation about getting #BeachMindReady. We are standing alongside bodies of all shapes and sizes to help them achieve beach-mind readiness for summer filled with more fun and less fear.

One Minute Brief of the Day:

Create posters for Body Image mentoring charity @BeenThere_App for their campaign to help people get #BeachMindReady so they have a summer of fun not fear.

Tweet your entries to @OneMinuteBriefs & @BeenThere_App with the hashtag #BeachMindReady

Deadline 6pm GMT. Remember to include your Twitter handle in the bottom right-hand corner of your entries.

Enter as many times as you wish and remember to add your Twitter handle in the bottom right-hand corner of your entries!

PRIZE:

£100 cash for today’s winner!!

Audience:

Let’s face it, almost all of us can resonate with this… We’re talking to those of us with ‘beach dread’. You think your body is the problem. It’s not.  It’s your mind being trained by this sick culture to reject your body that is the real problem. We stand with everyone to accept and embrace their bodies.

Goal:

Raise awareness of the brand and get people talking about being #BeachMindReady. We believe this will help us attract new users of (and secondly Mentors for) the service.

Dos:

  • Use the Been There Logo

  • Use the term ‘beach mind ready’ or #BeachMindReady

  • Ensure the reader understands Been There can help them

    Donts:

  • Body shame anyone

ABOUT BEEN THERE

Been There is a new charity app that connects people over 18 with a vetted and trained Mentor to help them with any body image issues they may have. We give them the opportunity to speak to someone who has ‘Been There’ themselves when it comes to body image issues and the mental health struggles that arise from them. Our Mentors and Mentees can chat discretely through the safe space of our app. Our Mentors are here to support, empower and, most importantly, listen. We’re not therapists, psychologists, counsellors, or helplines, we’re just like you, and we care because we wish we had someone who had “Been There”.

We were founded by Tessa Peters in 2021 after her own personal struggles with body image issues and an eating disorder. Tessa says of her experience:

“I needed someone who was non-judgemental and had lived shared experiences. I saw counsellors, dieticians and therapists. All with the best of intentions but none of them worked for me. I felt that everyone lacked relatability. I needed a service like Been There when I was younger, a service that didn’t exist, so I decided to create it myself.

During my own journey I eventually found a Mentor and still speak with him today. The value of this relationship and the impact it has had on my life, has been lifesaving. Our volunteer Mentors are here to support you through your own journeys and make sure you are not alone”.

The app just went live in 2022 and we have already been receiving positive feedback from our Mentees on their journey to self-acceptance.

One Minute Brief of the day: 'Everyone' is talking about ''Web3'' - but does 'anyone' know what it is? Create posters demonstrating how easy it is for anyone to access web3 with a Near wallet.

About today’s brief:

Web3 sounds exotic.... or plain confusing!

At Near we believe it should be the opposite and we're keen to engage creative people in finding ways to do that. Web3 is really about decentralisation.

What does that mean?

It means that instead of a 'centralised' organisation like Amazon, Twitter, Facebook, Google etc owning, harvesting and selling your data (Web2), you own that data and all transactions yourself. There's always beena. tradeoff in user experience for Web3, until now. Near has created 2 things that make decentralised Web3 much more simple than ever before:

- Fast Authentication (in plain english - super easy to create a wallet in just a couple of clicks https://near.org/signup ) you can then make a name for your wallet e.g. 'JoeBloggs69' giving you an identity and easy to remember account name. Before this innovation, users had to remember a long passphrase and the experience was way more clunky. 

- BOS - Blockchain Operating System - this sounds like something from the film Tron, but it's less scary! It means that absolutely anyone can find cool decentralised apps (dApps) in 1 place, any blockchains can be used (e.g. Polygon, Etherium) and entrepreneurs and developers can use all the code available on the blockchain to make their own products, services and businesses. 

'Everyone' is talking about ''Web3'' - but does 'anyone' know what it is?

That's the exciting challenge for today's OMB - promoting Web3 to a wider audience! Working with Near.org we're looking to explore ways in which seemingly complex idea of Web3 can be communicated in a simple and relevant way.

One Minute Brief of the day:

Show how Near will enable Web3 to be accessible for the world. 

Create posters for Near and/or its 'Blockchain Operating System, demonstrating how easy it is for anyone to access web3 with a Near wallet.

Tweet your entries to @oneminutebriefs and @NEARProtocol and the hashtags #NEARistheBOS with a link to https://near.org/ 

Enter as many times as you wish, remember to put your twitter handle in the corner of your entries to be in with a chance of winning. 

Prizes: 

1st Place: $1000 in NEAR directly into your own Near Wallet. (keep or convert it to cash or any other crypto)

This campaign is a rally cry to those who love to play, compete, and create. For the detail hunters, the I dotters and T crossers, for those who love to hone their skills, and fine tune their spec.

It’s about exceeding expectations, unleashing potential and providing the right technology to fuel the journey. Wherever you are, whatever you’re doing, we’ll help you level up and #AchieveAmazing.

We’re excited to be teaming up with the OMBLES today to help bring that to life in all sorts of creative ways.

About Chillblast:

Chillblast are experts in building custom build PCs.

We are a manufacturer, a brand, we are not a reseller.

We have been around for over 20 years and are the UKs most awarded PC build manufacturer.

Chillblast also sell off the shelf PCs, laptops, mice and monitors etc, but our core business and expertise is working with people (either via the site pc configurator or over the phone) to help define and then build the perfect PC for their needs.

Our customers are gamers, esports players, developers and creatives, a lot of whom cross over multiple interests…all are passionate about what they do and want quality output.

Why Chillblast is different 

Many retailers outsource their PC building to other firms rather than build and test them in-house. This can lead to a number of complications including limited stability testing, inadequate attention to detail and careless construction. When you buy a system from Chillblast your computer will be built by one of our own highly qualified system engineers, all of whom have years of experience at the highest levels of PC construction.


Campaign tone:

  • Human – real and punchy, not stuffy or formal.

  • Forward thinking – talk about how the brand, tech and products can move you forward, take you higher, make you better. Keep your words active and give them pace, energy and motion.

  • Experts – convey confidence. We know our stuff, we’re effortlessly self-assured but never cocky or arrogant.

Context

Governments from around the world will gather in the UAE later this year (Nov-Dec 2023) to review climate change impacts and negotiate a deal on climate action. One of the major points of discussion at this UN conference - called COP28 - is fossil fuel phase-out, the gradual reduction of the use and production of fossil fuels to zero. Fossil fuels cause local pollution where they are produced and used, and their ongoing use is causing lasting harm to the climate of our entire planet. A commitment has been made by wealthy countries to phase out fossil fuels faster and achieve netzero in energy systems by 2050. 

While the G7 ministers have made commitments to focus on fossil fuel phase-out, Sultan Al Jaber, COP28 president, who also heads the Abu Dhabi National Oil Company, wishes to shift focus on phasing out emissions, rather than fossil fuels which he stated will “continue to play a role in the foreseeable future”.


The danger of focusing on emission reductions instead of Fossil Fuel phaseout

While reducing emissions is a necessary step in addressing climate change, solely focusing on emissions reductions can be dangerous. Ignoring the root cause of emissions, which is the burning of fossil fuels, will only treat the symptoms and not the disease. The continued use of fossil fuels will inevitably lead to further greenhouse gas emissions, and ultimately, continued global warming. Without a focus on phasing out fossil fuels, we cannot achieve the necessary emissions reductions to prevent catastrophic climate change. Therefore, it is crucial for policymakers to take a strong stance on fossil fuel phaseout and prioritise the transition to renewable energy sources to mitigate the impacts of climate change.

Key messaging lines

You can use these key messages 

  1. UAE need to bring real climate action, the world is watching -  The COP president must take bold action to address the urgent threat of climate change. We cannot afford to settle for empty promises or incremental steps to ensure a sustainable future for ourselves and future generations. 

  2. Al Jaber, commit to fossil fuel phase-out - The future is at stake, and we cannot afford to wait any longer. A sustainable future can only be achieved with fossil fuel phase-out. It's time to take bold steps to transition to renewable energy sources and reduce our dependence on fossil fuels.

  3. Carbon credits are NOT the answer - Carbon credits are permits that allow companies to release a certain amount of carbon dioxide or other greenhouse gases

Examples

  • From Australia to California, devastating wildfires have caused significant damage to ecosystems, homes, and lives. Relying on fossil fuels, increases carbon dioxide in the atmosphere leading to warmer and drier conditions. 

  • Melting of polar ice caps, caused by fossil fuel emissions, has led to rising sea levels, threatening coastal communities around the world, including major cities such as Miami, New York, and Shanghai.

  • Other controversial carbon offset projects include Jari Pará REDD+ Project in northern Brazil, which forced indigenous communities to sign agreements that gave away their rights to the forest. The project was also found to be falsely claiming carbon credits. 

  • Ankeniheny-Zahamena Corridor REDD+ project in Madagascar was also found to be exploiting local communities, and the carbon credits generated were not based on real emissions reductions.

Our BioPods sachets made from seaweed are going to be a world first. The whole range will be transitioning from PVA to this new material throughout the rest of this year.

WILL YOU HELP US CELEBRATE 30 YEARS OF SHAVING LIVES?

It's time to head back in time to April 13th, 1993 - the summer is on its way, temperatures are rising, and the Nineties are smoothly getting into their swing.

In the UK, Young At Heart by the Bluebells sits atop the Top 40, across the pond, Informer by Snow tops the US Billboard charts. Bill Clinton holds the presidential reins in the US, while John Major is the Prime Minister of the UK. Texting is not yet a thing, neither is the internet and people are using landline phones, pagers, and faxes.

Fashion-wise, the late 80s trends are still in vogue, with coloured tights, denim overalls, flannel shirts, and shoulder pads all the rage. However, the grunge fashion has taken the world by storm, popularising ripped jeans, band t-shirts and Doc Martens.

A new music storage format, the CD, is taking the world by storm.

Turn on the radio and you'll hear the likes of Meat Loaf, UB40, Snow, Haddaway, WhitneyHouston, and new British boy band Take That, dominating the airwaves.

On TV, people are watching popular shows such as Baywatch and Last of the Summer Wine and gamers are playing classics such as Super Mario Kart and Sonic the Hedgehog 2. Kids and teenagers arealso into television shows such as Fireman Sam, Mr. Bean and The Simpsons, while playing with toys such as Pogs – a playing discs game or the Super Soaker water gun.

And, as a man, you were likely shaving with Gillette, there being little else to choose from.

However, on this day - 13th April 1993, King of Shaves was founded by 27 year old fresh faced clean shaven Brit Will King with a mission - to make shaving enjoyable rather than a painful daily chore. 

The rest is history.

Thirty years later, we’re still challenging, and hope that on our 30th birthday, you might make the change to us and enjoy a hit of 90’s “shave happy” in these stubbly, troubled times.

We promise you won’t Look Back in Anger if you do!

Thank you to the millions of men (and women) who’ve helped us remain as (retro) relevant now, as we were back then.

Don’t just shave, King of Shaves.

Background

Created in 1993 in Will King’s kitchen, King of Shaves is a British company that is now firmly established as a leading challenger brand in the UK. Following redundancy and after suffering for years from razor irritation when using conventional shaving foams and gels, Will experimented with blends of essential oils and eventually created his first product – King of Shaves Original Shaving Oil – that was to become the bedrock of the company.

Will hand-filled the first 10,000 bottles over the kitchen sink (it took two weeks) and in 1993, got the product listed by Harrods and Boots the Chemist in the UK.

King of Shaves was born!

“Back in 1992 I used to suffer from shaving rash and razor burn but couldn’t find a product on the market to solve my shaving problems. I suspected a lot of guys suffered in the same way I did, so I decided to solve the problem myself and develop a range of products to give a smooth, close and burn free shave – so in 1993 the King of Shaves was born.

Like me, I want you to enjoy shaving rather than endure it and have pioneered our simple guide to getting a close, comfortable shave with no irritation. Join our kingdom today and find out how to shave better with King of Shaves.” - Will King

OMB of the Day: Create posters to show that whales & dolphins shouldn't be in tanks, make people think twice before buying tickets to whale/dolphin shows & help @whalesorg #EndCaptivityForever

About today’s campaign:

This month marks 30 years since the curtain came down on the last captive dolphin show in the UK. That’s three decades since whales and dolphins were forced to perform demeaning tricks for crowds at places like Flamingo Land, Windsor Safari Park and the end of Clacton pier. But it’s still not illegal here and UK holidaymakers still visit these cruel circuses abroad. 

Keeping whales and dolphins in tanks for human entertainment is wrong. They are too intelligent, too emotionally complex, too social, too mobile and just too darned big to be confined like this.

We want the OMBLES to help us spread this important message and end it forever.

One Minute Brief of the Day:

Create posters to show that whales and dolphins should not be in tanks, make people think twice before buying tickets to whale or dolphin shows and help @whalesorg to #EndCaptivityForever.

Be as creative as you like … and accompany it with eye-catching headlines! You can enter as many times as you want too!

Just make sure you tweet to @OneMinuteBriefs and @whalesorg with the hashtag #EndCaptivityForever 

Don’t forget to include your twitter handle in the bottom right-hand corner of your submissions.

Winner Prizes:

£200 cash & a year’s adoption of a wild, free UK dolphin

About WDC & the Campaign:

WDC is the leading global NGO dedicated to whales and dolphins.

We are lean, ambitious, impactful, and internationally respected.

We work across the whole spectrum of conservation threats, from climate breakdown to captivity. Whales and dolphins are awesome. They are intelligent beings, vital for the health of the ocean and planet.  Humans have decimated their populations, inflicted suffering on individuals and wreaked havoc on their homes. 

But it’s not too late. We can still help them recover and flourish and they can help us reconnect with the wild and repair the damage we have caused.

Save the whale. Save the world.
