I think next year I will give less to big organisations such as ai, preferring to give to the smaller organizations that provide essential health services in poor countries.

I fully agree with DavidBrin, who wrote in the afterword to Earth, I think, that we are truly lucky these days, because if we really care about something, but do not feel like putting our life (and lifestyle) on the line, we have the rare priviledge of being able to pay other people for doing it. I think next year I will donate less to the WWF and more to human rights organizations.
