In a 53-47 vote, the Senate rejected Lisa Murkowski's bill that would have stripped the EPA of its authority to regulate carbon pollution -- letting big polluters off the hook. Thank you to the 17,000 Care2 members for joining efforts with Environmental Defense Fund and signing the petition to keep our air clean. 
Thanks to a lawsuit filed by The Center for Biological Diversity and Turtle Island Institute -- along with petitions and letters from the public -- BP agreed to stop allowing endangered sea turtles to be burned alive during surface-oil cleanup operations. Over 12,000 signatures were added to the Care2 petitions. 
In joining efforts with IFAW, Greenpeace and WSPA in the fight against whaling worldwide, five petitions featured on Care2 gathered more than 110,000 signatures in the last year. At an International Whaling Committee (IWC) meeting in Morocco on Wednesday, June 23, a proposal to legalize whaling was dismissed. 
In early June, the Environmental Protection Agency made an announcement banning all uses of the pesticide endosulfan in the United States. 3,000 Care2 members signed the petition -- sponsored by Defenders of Wildlife -- to protect the health of animals and people from this deadly pesticide. 
One Care2 member created a petition to ban fox and coyote pens. After gathering over 700 signatures in 14 days, his petition was sent to a meeting, where the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission created a draft rule against fox and coyote enclosures. 
More than 2,000 Care2 members stood by Bella, signing a petition to protect the puppy after being accused of attacking singer Vanessa Carlton last May. Bella was recently found innocent and given permission to return home once her owner built a proper fence -- her family is grateful to all who believed in their puppy. 
Since the start of the Butterfly Rewards program in 2009, Care2 members have helped animals, people and the environment by simply taking action on our site. We've teamed up with ASPCA, Carbon Fund, Kiva, OXFAM, Population Services International and Trees for the Future in order to provide you with 16 gift options. --
