Dear Mr. Barber,

I am writing because I am currently setting up a sister organization geared towards the Antarctic
conservation efforts and have a few questions to ask you regarding running a conservation foundation. I
would like for my organization to operate in a similar way as your and to be as successful in helping
conserve the environment. These questions would help me tremendously in creating this non-profit and
start helping al of the animals that make Antarctica their home.

1. What do you consider the most difficult thing about running a conservation effort?
2. If you were to change one thing, either current or while starting, what would that be?
3. What do you find to be the most effective technique to help with the efforts?

I appreciate your time in advance as answering these questions will have an enormous impact on how
the conversation efforts in Antarctica will look. Maybe it would also be possible to be a joint event in the
near future to help educate people about how much their actions affect the environment and animals
around them. In any event, I look forward to hearing back from you and potentially working together in
the years to come.
