Black Footed Farret

| The black-footed ferret is a carnivorous mammal with short ears, a short snout and five toes on each foot. Once common on the plains of the Central United States, populations declined rapidly with the extirpation of prairie dogs, their main prey species. The black-footed ferret is currently listed as extinct in the wild, but captive breeding programs may allow for successful reintroduction of wild populations. |

"One of the first things scientists learned is that there are several greenhouse gases responsible for warming, and humans emit them in a variety of ways. Most come from the combustion of fossil fuels in cars, factories and electricity production. The gas responsible for the most warming is carbon dioxide, also called CO2. Other contributors include methane released from landfills and agriculture (especially from the digestive systems of grazing animals), nitrous oxide from fertilizers, gases used for refrigeration and industrial processes, and the loss of forests that would otherwise store CO2.
Different greenhouse gases have very different heat-trapping abilities. Some of them can even trap more heat than CO2. A molecule of methane produces more than 20 times the warming of a molecule of CO2. Nitrous oxide is 300 times more powerful than CO2. Other gases, such as chlorofluorocarbons (which have been banned in much of the world because they also degrade the ozone layer), have heat-trapping potential thousands of times greater than CO2. But because their concentrations are much lower than CO2, none of these gases adds as much warmth to the atmosphere as CO2 does"

Jom Selamatkan Khazanah Negara...

The Malaysian peninsula is home to some of world's most amazing wildlife including Sumatran rhinos, Malayan tigers and Asian elephants.
But these, and many other species in the region, are under increasing threat due to poaching and the demand for their body parts in the illegal wildlife trade.

Wildlife in Malaysia is currently protected by the Protection of Wild Life Act 1972, a 37-year old law, which is severely outdated and riddled with loopholes. As a result many species continue to be poached and illegally traded at alarming rates, whilst wildlife offenders often escape arrest and prosecution.
The good news is that the Malaysian government is now in the process of amending this legislation. But we need your help to make sure this will result in a stronger Act that gives Malaysia's wildlife the protection it deserves.
Examples of the amendments needed include:
* The Act should be strengthened so that all products containing or claiming to contain parts of protected species be made illegal.
* Mandatory jail sentences and stiffer fines imposed for serious wildlife offences.
At the moment, the Act does not contain provisions to allow for active public involvement in wildlife protection. To rectify this, information such as the list of all prosecutions, convictions and sentences imposed should be made publicly available.

Selamatkan Pokok Kita..jom Tanam
It's the smallest thing but possibly the grandest gesture you can do today...
Plant a tree seed.
It can be a pip from an apple, an acorn from an oak or a winged nut from a maple - you can even go crazy and buy a whole packet of tree seeds from your local garden centre if you want.
It doesn't really matter what tree seed you plant, so long as you plant it. And the best seeds - those with the greatest chance of growing large and living long - are seeds from trees that grow naturally where you live.
But where do you plant it?
On the side of the side of the street, in your garden, in the park, by a lay-by, on the side of a field or next to a wood... anywhere where there's space and light*. Then all you have to do is
· bend down,
· push your finger into the soil about to about 2cm (1 inch) depth - or use a pen - and pop that seed in.
· Then stand on the hole to close it over and tuck it in.
Go crazy and buy a packet of tree seeds from your local garden centre if you wish.
Or go round your neighbourhood at the right time of year (usually autumn for most of us), and collect seeds from the many different trees that grow naturally in your area, and stock up for the year of planet-saving seed-planting ahead of you...
That's it.
That's all you have to do.
You've taken a step, an action, that helps our only planet - the planet we depend on and cling to - breathe a little easier (quite literally).
It may be a simple act.
It may have been easy to carry out. But given half a chance that seed will grow and grow and mean more and more as your life goes on.
Your one single action gains significance as it grows, as you grow.
How easy was that? How good do you feel?
And if it does make you feel good, go do it again!
And again.
Whenever you're feeling blue or a little down, or even just for the sake of it, go do a bit of planet saving by popping a seed in a hole the next time you're out and about.
It's not the only seed you just planted
You just planted one in your own mind.
The idea, the thought, perhaps the hope that youcan do something to save this planet.
That you can help maintain the majesty of life as we know it.
Doing small things can achieve big things.
The very seed you planted in the soil is proof of that.
A living example of how from small things even greater things emerge and grow.
Can you save a planet? Yes you can.
Why are trees important?
Trees prevent soil erosion, are pretty vital in maintaining and regulating most water cycles, and help check global warming by using carbon dioxide in photosynthesis.
So it's quite scary that over the past 50 years, about half the world's original forest cover has been lost.
Read more on why trees and forests are important to life on Earth...
* When you're planet saving - be careful!
Remember - you're planting for the future.
So when you plant your seed try and imagine what it will be like when it is all grown up.
Will it cause problems for anyone?
After all, in a few years we don't want someone cutting down what you have so carefully sown all those years ago.
What if my tree seed doesn't grow?
Don't worry. This can happen for a variety of reasons (lack of water, poor soil, competition from other plants etc).
Simply plant another seed, but maybe in a different place.
If there's one thing about planet saving, it's that you don't give up at the first attempt :-)
