The Pacific Northwest Tree Octopus
How You Can Help
Here are a few things that you can do to help save the Pacific Northwest tree octopus:
Posters motivate the citizenry to action! Post them!
- Write your representatives to let them know that you are concerned and that you feel the tree octopus should be included on the Endangered Species List and given special protection.
- Write to celebrities asking them to speak out on behalf of the tree octopus during press junkets and award shows.
- Help build awareness of the tree octopus by telling your friends, co-workers, or even random people on the streets.
- Place a tentacle ribbon on your website or social media.
- Participate in tree octopus awareness marches. You can demonstrate their plight during the march by having your friends dress up as tree octopuses while you attack them in a lumberjack costume.
- Pamphlet your neighborhood. Tentacle ribbons make excellent doorknob hangers.
- Join and donate to an organization committed to conservation, such as Greenpeas.
- Boycott companies that use non-tree-octopus-safe wood harvesting practices.
- Sign an online petition! Nothing activates activity like an Internet petition.
