Hey all ... this is an urgent favour to ask of everyone here to sign this online Petition to Save this Seahorses in Johor, Malaysia from destruction... an excerpt from http://www.aquariumpros.ca/forums/sh...threadid=29324


Here is a quote from one of the horse forums,


"The seahorses (H. Kuda) and wildlife in the Pulai river estuary(Johor Bahru, Malysia) near Singapore need our help guys!, if this land is developed it will be poisoned and destroyed forever. The seagrass beds, seahorses and the Dugong population will vanish. At least 5000 signatures are needed and if you have time please add a comment!.

They plan to clear 2,255 acres of mangrove for Petrochemical and Maritime industries polluting the land with industrial gases, paints, varnishes, petrol refinery etc. You have to read further on the website..

Help to save the fate of these animals ~http://www.thepetitionsite.com/2/help-save-the-seahorse

Thank You All.
 
Not trying to be a jerk, but what will a bunch af americans signing a petition do in Malaysia, and what are they going to do with my e-mail address? I think maybe we will be saving their "spam" list and not the seahorses.
 
It appers that after one minute of research I was right.

Then it's a good thing I used an email that serves exclusively for things that could end up spamming me :) . I never check that one, haha.

I guess I should have, lol but it doesn't matter to me if they're going to use my e-mail address for spamming. There was an option in the e-mail to opt out of any further communications from them. I think the cause is worthwhile though I realize the effort may be in vain and that is sad.
