Hello everyone,

Some of you may have already signed this petition http://tinyurl.com/lvb8uw5 on

It is a good opportunity to send a message that the release of helium balloons 
is having an unacceptable impact on our marine wildlife, especially birds. I 
witnessed this first hand when we came across a dead Black-browed Albatross on 
the pelagic trip off Southport in June http://tinyurl.com/mrzuao7  the bird had 
balloon curling ribbon trailing from the mouth having swallowed a balloon.

Kind regards,

Todd Burrows
