Raising for Effective Giving has released their Q4 numbers and it seems the poker community is determined to provide relief for all sentient beings on the planet, not just humans.

125-years ago whale blubber was used to light up our homes. It was the main source of fuel. We wanted to see what we were doing. Extermination of the species was merely an after thought.

A lot has changed since then.

I can now buy a light bulb for a few bucks.

No need to kill the whales.

But we keep killing them anyway.

We keep getting between the sheets. Women are like Pez dispensers. There are babies everywhere. More mouths mean more food. Global livestock production is big business. But it’s also a terrible business. And it’s not just the animals that are suffering. So is our planet.
