Passionate about the environment, Ady, an early-adopter of electric car technology and instrumental in AHD's rooftop installation of what is one of the largest solar panel arrays in Los Angeles, has become an internationally-recognized environmentalist and philanthropist. In 2009, he donated the ocean defense vessel Ady Gil to the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society for use in patrolling the Antarctic ocean in search of illegal whaling vessels.
The Ady Gil is a one-of-a-kind 76' catamaran which currently holds the world record for circumnavigating the globe (then christened Earthrace) at 60 days, 23 hours, 49 minutes.
In an unprovoked attack captured on film, the Japanese security ship Shonan Maru No. 2 deliberately rammed and caused catastrophic damage to the Sea Shepherd trimaran Ady Gil.
Six crew crewmembers, four from New Zealand, one from Australia, and one from the Netherlands were immediately rescued by the crew of the Sea Shepherd ship Bob Barker. The Ady Gil is believed to be sinking and chances of salvage are very grim.
According to eyewitness Captain Chuck Swift on the Bob Barker, the attack happened while the vessels were dead in the water. The Shonan Maru No. 2 suddenly started up and deliberately rammed the Ady Gil ripping eight feet of the bow of the vessel completely off. According to Captain Swift, the vessel does not look like it will be saved.
“The Japanese whalers have now escalated this conflict very violently,” said Captain Paul Watson. “If they think that our remaining two ships will retreat from the Southern Ocean Whale Sanctuary in the face of their extremism, they will be mistaken. We now have a real whale war on our hands now and we have no intention of retreating.”

Animals Asia’s main project is the rescue of moon bears from cruel bile farms in China and Vietnam.
The ambitious bear rescue project was hatched in 1993 when Animals Asia’s Founder and CEO,Jill Robinson, walked onto a bear bile farm in China. What she discovered that day changed her life forever and led to the formation of the Animals Asia Foundation and its ground-breaking Moon Bear Rescue Program.
In China, it is legal for highly endangered moon bears to spend more than 20 years of their lives in coffin-sized cages where they are milked regularly for their bile, often through crude, filthy catheters or permanently open holes in their abdomens. Bears are also farmed for bile in Vietnam though in that country the process is illegal and involves the use of drugs and ultrasound guided extraction. Bear bile medicines are used in China, Japan, Korea, Vietnam and other countries across the world with significant Asian populations.
While studies have shown bear bile to be effective, today Chinese doctors agree that it can easily be replaced by herbal and synthetic alternatives, which are cheaper,more effective and more readily available. The Animals Asia has established two sanctuaries for rescued moon bears in China and the other in Vietnam and is leading education campaigns in both countries designed to curb the demand for bile.

Born and raised in Wimbledon, England, Victoria Stilwell is one of the world's most recognized and respected dog trainers.
She is best known for her role as the host of Animal Planet's hit TV series It's Me or the Dog, through which she is able to share her insight and passion for positive, reward-based dog training and as a judge on CBS's Greatest American Dog. By reaching audiences in over 30 countries, Stilwell helps counsel families on their pet problems.
Her two best-selling books, It's Me or the Dog: How to Have the Perfect Pet and Fat Dog Slim: How to Have a Healthy, Happy Pet, have been widely praised, and they detail her core reward-based training philosophies: "think dog" and develop "clear, consistent communication between owner and dog."
Stilwell is passionate about using positive reinforcement training methods that enhance a dog's ability to learn while increasing confidence, resulting in a healthy, well-adjusted pet. She is firmly against the use of forceful, dominance-based training techniques which often
result in 'quick fixes' but ultimately cause more long-term harm than good.
