[Dtwg] Fwd: We need your help

Mon Jun 8 09:29:06 EDT 2020

Hi Russ, (et al). hope you are well. Has turtling yet begun at J-Bay? My
friend Carl, who is the Outreach Director of Recycling for the Rutland
County Solid Waste Management District in Vermont, received a solicitation
from the organization below. Do you know anything about them, or is there
anyone on the DTWG listserve in South Texas who might know of their
legitimacy? Their website seems rather thin on details and heavy on "buy
our bracelet," and there are other things that strike me as off, but
perhaps y'all might be able to ferret out information about them. In Carl's
position as outreach director he is in the position of being able to
forward the email he got on to quite a multiple of listserves and contacts
within the recycling community, but he wouldn't want to be promoting any
sort of illegitimate entity.

THANKS,
Erik Königer
NYSDEC Wildlife Rehabilitator/specializing in DBTs

We Need Your Help!

Turtle nesting season is in full force and we need your help to remove as
much plastic as possible. Each bracelet you buy can help save a turtle’s
life.

While some sea turtles have been found to have swallowed hundreds of bits
of plastic, just 14 pieces significantly increases their risk of death,
according to a study published in Scientific Reports.

Young sea turtles are especially vulnerable because they drift with
currents where the floating plastic accumulates.

*These are pictures from our sad encounters with turtles and plastic on our
beaches:*
