Field notes
The interface offers four kinds of intervention, from signing a petition to investigating the fictional threat to Bobr’s home. The site separates the conservation pledge from actual transfers: it names the Bronx River Alliance as recipient of 20% of eligible-purchase profits, while showing no money transferred or set aside so far. The plush waitlist is free, and the page says joining it does not count as a donation.
