Cherish all you have this season, it's hard to know when it can be stripped away. To watch the full film follow me @andy_best and see it on my website. Blessings to you all and happy New Year. #StillWildFilm

Photo by @FransLanting “Ivory is for Elephants” At the end of 2017 the Chinese government plans to ban ivory sales, by the terms of an agreement made between President Xi Jinping and President Obama in 2015. Let’s make sure our current administration in the US holds up its side of the bargain in 2018 and does not reopen the import of ivory and other elephant body parts from Zambia and Zimbabwe. Elephants deserve better than that. China's ivory ban is a great gift to elephants and all of us who care about their survival. We salute the many individuals and organizations worldwide who banded together with their counterparts in China to make this ban on ivory sales happen. Special thanks and gratitude go to Save the Elephants, to Wild Aid, and to the World Wildlife Fund network. I offer this image of an elephant in Namibia in recognition of this occasion and hope you will add your support to the organizations who will continue the hard work ahead.

I have lived here for 28 years. I was born and raised here and I wouldn’t change that for nothing. Neighbor to me means it take a village to raise a child, neighbors can be extended family, best friends or a number of other things. I know quite a few of my neighbors. I grew up with these people some even watch me grow up right before their eyes.”

I would call most of my block, the workers at the neighboring shops, all my neighbors. They’re the people I say good morning and good evening
I’ve been in Brooklyn for 6 years now, before that I grew up in Long
Beach, NY. After living in Connecticut with a romantic partner that ended poorly, I moved to
Brooklyn to be closer to my family and get away from him. I am fortunate to have a network of
amazing friends and family here, and Bed Stuy has been my favorite place I have ever lived.
It is the people you share your immediate living area with, the people you see around, the people
you smile and nod to when you make eye contact. A neighbor to me are the people you wouldn’t
hesitate to help if they were in trouble.
to every day, the people who helped me find my cat when she got out, the elderly couple whose trash cans I return, and the neighbor who helped me rake and bag the leaves my landlord didn’t clear up. Out of everywhere I have lived this is the first block that truly felt like a home, when I lived in south Brooklyn my neighborhood was unfriendly, no one made eye contact, no one communicated. Here I feel like I am part of a community.”
