Explayboy subasta baile en Rusia para proyectos ecologistas

La Fundación Pamela Anderson para la protección de animales subastará en Rusia un baile con la actriz estadounidense para recaudar fondos que se destinarán a proyectos medioambientales en este país.

El precio inicial del baile en la subasta que se celebrará en el marco del Foro Económico de Vladivostok (Extremo Oriente ruso) es de US$7 mil 500, anunció la página web de la fundación.

La actriz, que llegó ayer a Vladivostok, también sacará a la venta pública una boya empleada durante el rodaje de la serie “Vigilantes de la playa” que la lanzó a la fama mundial.

Los fondos recaudados en el acto benéfico, en la que también participan otras personalidades y organizaciones, se destinarán a la lucha contra la caza furtiva y la venta ilegal de animales salvajes en internet.

Anderson, conocida por su compromiso con la defensa de animales, se reunirá hoy con el ministro de Recursos Naturales ruso, Serguéi Donskoi, para hablar de la cooperación entre el Gobierno de este país y las ONG internacionales para la protección del medio ambiente.

Pamela Anderson Address to the Eastern Economic Forum. Vladivostok, Russia Sept.4 2015 Thank-you for this opportunity to address this forum. I am very honoured and I very much appreciate the invitation from The Minister of Natural Resources and Environment for the Russian Federation Sergei Donskoi to attend this Eastern Economic Forum. As an international celebrity I am aware that I have a global audience and that my views are listened to, reported on and at times can be quite controversial. I recognize that there are scientists, journalists, scholars and politicians who are much more knowledgeable than I on many things but I also recognize that the value I have as a person in the spotlight and I take that responsibility head on – in my passion for compassion regarding all living things… Our modern media culture has given artists the platform to be influential communicators. This gives me the ability to be a voice on many issues. Issues like the diminishment of bio-diversity, climate change, pollution,the treatment of animals, the destruction of our forests and health issues associated with the decline in ecological integrity affecting this entire planet. I believe that our planet is in trouble. I believe that our oceans are dying. We are losing our coral reefs, we have removed over 50%25 of the living natural biomass from this planet since 1950. We have seen a 40%25 loss of plankton in the Ocean since 1950. Imagine if your economy diminished by 40-50%25… We are also seeing a dangerous diminishment of bee populations around the world. We live in a world where economic priorities increasingly push ecological priorities aside. Yes the economy is important, but it should never be more important than the life support system that sustains us all. Last month Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbott said “The last thing we want to do is strengthen the environment and at the same time damage our economy… to put the environment ahead of the economy.” This is a willfully- reckless and irresponsible statement- but not surprising from a world leader who has declared war on environmentalists……
