Elephants are in trouble. We d lose about one hundred elephants every day, some thirty thousand elephants each year to poaching. There are still stores around the world. They are selling every trinkets. We are looking at the extinction of a species simply because we have the sense that IT is a wonderful gift to give, or the social status that this elephant, every piece. will give you. Well, the survey was a survey of the five largest consuming countries, so china, Philippines, thailand, vietnam in united states, and most of the the ivery, most of the poached ivery, winds up in either asia or the us. One of the major ways that we're going to make a difference is by lessen the social status of every gift giving you . want to make, purchasing ivory and owning ivery socially unacceptable. If we can begin to alter attitudes about how people think about ivory, IT isn't the perfect gift that IT doesn't impart happiness, or a sense of well being that IT doesn't indicate social status, then you can begin to suppress that demand. You don't want . to buy ivory. You think it's socially unacceptable. You then have a responsibility to tell your friends that becomes your opportunity to educate people and explain to them why they should not buy ivory. If something doesn't happen quickly, we could be the generation that loses elephants.
