Disney Conservation Fund Helps Bat Conservation International Support Wildlife and the Environment

Press Release:

Disney Conservation Fund Helps Bat Conservation International Support Wildlife and the Environment

[Austin, Texas, November 26, 2019] – Bat Conservation International (BCI) has been awarded a grant by the Disney Conservation Fund (DCF) to stop the rapid population decline of the endangered Mexican long-nosed bat in northern Mexico. As part of this work, BCI’s bi-national team of experts will lead a series of community-based conservation activities aimed at identifying, protecting, and restoring agave habitat – the key food source for this nectar feeding bat. By harnessing community support, this large-scale initiative will help save the Mexican long-nosed bat by establishing robust ‘nectar corridors’ that the bats can use during their annual migration from Central Mexico to the southwestern U.S.

The fund has been supporting local efforts around the world aimed at saving wildlife, inspiring action and protecting the planet with nearly $86 million distributed to nonprofit organizations since 1995.

Dr. Jon Flanders, Director, BCI’s Endangered Species Intervention Project explains the importance of this work: “This initiative builds on the success of previous work aimed at protecting important cave roosts for this endangered species of bat. Focusing our efforts on protecting and restoring agave habitat in northern Mexico marks a significant step in our conservation efforts to save this species from extinction, none of which would have been possible without the ongoing support of the Disney Conservation Fund.”

DCF grant recipients are selected based on their efforts to implement comprehensive community wildlife conservation programs, stabilize and increase populations of at-risk animals and engage communities in conservation in critical ecosystems around the world.

A Simplified EU Cookie Law Approach

Update
Thanks for everyone starring the repo, cookies-monster made it to cdnjs!


I've already talked about the EU cookie law, but moaning about it won't solve the issue. Until common sense and competence will reach European politics so that this law can be erased, we should provide some info to our users.

Not Another Library

There are already few solutions that require a manual or libraries plugins that will cost much bandwidth.
I've decided to use my "special vanilla powers" and go lightweight for real: 578 bytes once "minzipped".
There is absolutely nothing else to do than just including the script. Zero config, drop in and go.

You Are Free To Text & Style

There's no predefined template, there's no predefined style, unless you'd like to use the same I've used for the following page:



You are in charge of the message to show, and you could put an optional link or a button in it with the class cookies-monster-accepted.
If the script will find such button, it will configure it as explicit call to action and once such link/button has been clicked, it will set a cookie that will expire in a year, and it will add the class hidden to the main container which should have a cookies-monster id.
Following an example of the most basic layout.

<div id="cookies-monster" class="hidden">
This sites uses cookies. <a
class="cookies-monster-accepted"
href="#cookies-monster"
>Accept</a>
</div>

Nothing else ... really

Since you are in charge of pretty much everything, you know what to write on your banner, with the needed language, and with any extra link or option you want. Just stick the script in and you are ready to go!

What would be awesome though, is some star to its repo, even if you have your own solution, so that we can move the script in cdn.js and forget once for all about this problem.

Thank You for reading and contributing!
