Oil, oil, everywhere - how to help?!?
Some people use skills and knowledge to clean oil-slicked birds.
Some set up barriers and hope they'll hold.
Some apply their knowledge toward capping the devastating leak.
Some raise the money to help pay for the frighteningly extensive clean-up and restoration efforts.
The Nature Conservancy contacted me and asked if I would use my blog to help spread the word about CNN's Larry King Live telethon Monday night at 8pm ET. The 2 Hour Gulf Coast Relief Telethon will help The Nature Conservancy raise funds to help restore the Gulf Coast.
The Nature Conservancy has launched the Fund for Gulf Coast Restoration to expand our work in the long term recovery of the Gulf of Mexico and key surrounding states. Money raised from this fund will help scientists and staff devote their energies and expertise to aiding in the recovery of critical ecosystems - the future of oyster beds, marshlands and estuaries is now at stake. Celebrities lending their support to the telethon include Sting, Philippe Cousteau, Kathy Griffin, Ted Danson, Robert Redford, Harry Connick Jr., Aaron Neville, Anderson Cooper, Edward James Olmos and more. For more information about how The Nature Conservancy plans to help the Gulf coast, its wildlife and the people that depend on it please visit http://nature.org/restore.
Do you feel powerless to help with this huge disaster? The Nature Conservancy suggests these five methods to help raise money for the Gulf restoration fund.

3. Post updates to Facebook & Twitter. Use the hash tag #CNN#HelpGulf.
