As I’m sure you are aware, the disaster in the Gulf is spreading and apparently, neither BP nor our government have solutions. But there is a group of people working in conjunction with salons and pet stores, grooming facilities, and related places that do have at least a solution for containment and clean-up: Hair, Fur, and Fleece booms:

Matter of Trust is a group coordinating and distributing hair, fur, and fleece booms to assist in the containment and clean-up and YOU can help!!
As a customer, a concerned citizen, and a supporter of citizen involvement on behalf of our planet, I encourage you to learn more and get involved. Copy this post, give it to others…. email it to your friends, tell your family, visit your local vet, pet store, hair cuttery, any place that sees or disposes of hair, fur, or fleece of ANY type — They can all help and getting started is easy:
