Offline organizations began to join together with all sorts of online products to give as many people as possible the opportunity to make a difference, make the world a better place to live, and to reduce the damage we do to nature every day.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So let&#8217;s take a closer look at some of the most significant issues that digital products along with offline organizations are actively dealing with.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/wildbrowser.com\/?utm_source=focusingonwildlife&amp;utm_medium=gp&amp;utm_campaign=three_digital_products\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener follow\" data-wpel-link=\"exclude\"><b>Wild Browser<\/b><\/a><b> vs. The problem of wildlife extinction<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The total number of known threatened animal species has increased from 5,205 to 8,462 since 1996 and this number continues to grow inexorably. We cannot continue to destroy the fragile creatures that we share the planet with, and Wild Browser fights for that goal.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The idea of Wild Browser is very simple. Everyone can contribute to animal welfare and rescue by choosing Wild Browser. Work, browse, and communicate using the app while helping to secure a future for the wildlife and wild places we all love.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How does it work? As users surf the web, revenue generated by Wild Browser&#8217;s search ads accrues in the background without interfering with their internet experience. 100% of these proceeds are donated to wildlife and nature conservation charities.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Wild Browser partners with a broad variety of animal charities from over a dozen countries located around the world.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some examples of conservation partners include:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">FreeMe Wildlife, a South African rescue organization that has been rescuing and rehabilitating injured and abandoned wildlife since the 1990s.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The International Rhino Foundation that works to conserve the five remaining species of rhinoceros, helping to grow populations while protecting wild rhinos from poaching and encroachment. <\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Stand For Trees that protects mature trees and the ecosystems they support, something increasingly important as wildfires become more frequent and dangerous.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Ugandan Conservation Foundation that manages and protects conservancies and national parks in the country, with an emphasis on stopping poaching and other crimes committed against wildlife.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Animal Fund that undertakes marine conservation projects throughout Europe and northern Africa, with a particular focus on protecting dolphins and whales from dangers such as pollution and sonar testing.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><b>Ocean Hero vs. The problem of ocean pollution caused by plastic<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">According to the Ellen MacArthur Foundation report, by 2050, there will be more plastic than fish in the ocean. And that\u2019s what Ocean Hero is fighting against by recovering ocean-bound plastic and building recycling infrastructure.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s an extension with a clear mechanism of action that can be easily installed in the browser.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Surf the web like you do every day.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Collect shells along the way by opening tabs and searching the web.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For every 100 shells, recover one plastic bottle!<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ocean Hero, in collaboration with their partners, works with local communities to recover ocean-bound waste while also supporting the Plastic Bank&#8217;s worldwide infrastructure of plastic collecting centers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Many communities have limited waste management systems, and recycling centers are typically only available in larger cities. That\u2019s why Ocean Hero teamed up with Trash Waste Solutions to develop micro-recycling plants right in their communities.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Mastercard Donate vs. The problem of deforestation<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The problem of disappearing forests cannot be overestimated, because it directly affects climate change, the rate of animal extinction, and the decline in the quality of human life due to temperature changes and natural disasters.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mastercard, in partnership with the Priceless Planet Coalition, has an initiative that allows you to donate money to the fight against deforestation.
