The Worldwide Society for the Protection of Animals is seeking to raise awareness around the globe about animal welfare. Their goal is to unite the all animal welfare initiatives under a single common goal - the recognition that animals are sentient beings with the ability to feel pain and suffering. It is a major movement to increase the consciousness of the treatment of animals worldwide. To read the goals and to sign their petition click here. The ASPCA endorses this initiative and is helping to spread the word.
