Countries all over the world have been crushing or burning their ivory stockpiles to symbolize their commitment to strengthening wildlife trafficking laws and punishments for those (like poachers) who break them. Here in the U.S., we're still waiting. Tell President Obama to take immediate action to shut down the U.S. ivory trade (the second largest in the world) by going to www.nrdc.org/ivory. THANK YOU to all of you who have already taken action -- every voice matters in this fight. -Claire
