Welcome to OnlyFootprints.org! Weāre on a mission to make a real impact on our planet, and weāre inviting you to join us. For just $10 or $20 a month, you can become a member and ensure that your environmental footprintācarbon, water, and wildlifeāis fully offset and responsibly managed. Itās like giving yourself a āfootprint-freeā guarantee while contributing to meaningful conservation efforts. Together, letās leave only footprints of positive change.
Weāll use your membership dues to buy up land in the heart of Americaās lowlands, where beavers and their incredible engineering skills are sadly missing. We’re not just buying land; weāre buying entire creeks! Our plan is to build state-of-the-art ābeaver technologyā (yes, you read that right). This includes doing prescribed burns, planting native species for various birds, and anything else to ensure we leave only footprints behind. You know, like when you go camping and the motto is “leave only footprints, take only memories.” Well, we want that for the whole planet!š
Weāre here to give back, just like the Native Americans taught us. They viewed beavers as creation gods, while some folks asked them to trap these furry engineers for cash. The Native Americans thought that was a bit bonkers and said, āNo way! If we see you messing with beavers, weāll mess with you!ā Why? Because beavers help prevent erosion. Just think about it: when beavers are around, they keep the land lush. Without them, you get barren landscapes like the Badlands in South Dakota!šø
And hereās a fun fact: Teddy Roosevelt loved hunting there in the late 1800s. He came home with giant trophy animals, but when he returned as president, he was shocked to find the place had turned into a desert! The big game had shrunk to almost nothing. So, what did he discover? The absence of beavers! Theyāre like natureās little engineers, preventing erosion and helping the land thrive.š¦
This is why Roosevelt protected those areas and kickstarted national parks and monuments. America even inspired other countries to take care of their natural resources! So, join us at OnlyFootprints.org and help us ensure the beaversāand our planetāget the love they deserve!š¦
