When John Church of Just Marketing is not using his executive skills to market sports professionals, he spends his spare time supporting the Defenders of Wildlife organization. Based out of Washington DC, Defenders of Wildlife works to promote the welfare of imperiled wildlife throughout North America and the rest of the world. Defenders of Wildlife began in 1947, and has spent the decades since fighting for wildlife rights on the ground, on Capitol Hill, and in the court systems.
The goal of the Defenders of Wildlife organization is to protect all native plants and animals in their natural habitats. This national conservation organization has a vision that includes the preservation of biodiversity amid all species of animals and all ecosystems.
At the ground level in each state, Defenders of Wildlife helps the local governments to develop innovative and practical programs that restore and protect native species and their many different habitats. Through this hands-on experience, they are able to make positive influences to policies that are written at the state and local level. Above the small town or county level of bureaucracy, Wildlife Defenders works tirelessly with those who write policy in the federal and international arenas. This allows them to influence lawmakers through research and education, thus helping to create policies that aim to protect wildlife and habitats. They work closely with officials from the Department of Agriculture and the Department of the Interior to advocate for additional governmental funding for wildlife research and conservancy.
When the team at Wildlife Defenders discovers a wildlife injustice, they take their battle to the courts. Doing this allows them to promote legal safeguards for the wildlife in any given state or habitat. Considering that the wildlife of the world cannot speak on its own behalf, advocates in their favor are crucial in the court systems. This also means that the species protected from the Wildlife Defenders advocacy is wide and varied. While they may find themselves in the court system fighting for the native animals of Florida, for example, they are also in turn fighting for the migratory and transboundary mammals, marine mammals, and birds that call Florida home on any given month.
Defenders of Wildlife promotes greater understanding and education in the realms of climate change, habitat conservation, renewable energy, and the Endangered Species Act. Each of these topics plays a significant role in the long term health and safety of the world's wildlife population. Those who wish to support Defenders of Wildlife may become members of the organization, give monthly donations, attend hosted events, or even adopt a wildlife animal. John Church Just Marketing cares for wildlife, and is proud to tell everyone that he is a wildlife defender himself.
