The Humane Society of the United States is stepping up their campaign to end the seal hunt in Canada. Last week, we featured an event held in NYC by Nigel Barker with celebrities like Khloe Kardashian, Carmen Electra, and Brody Jenner in attendance. This week, the HSUS invited some younger stars to learn more about the cause and join the boycott of Canadian seafood until the hunt is stopped.
In attendance were celebs like Erin Lucas of MTV’s The City, Krysten Ritter and Connor Paolo of Gossip Girl, Katrina Bowden of 30 Rock and Donny Klang of Making The Band. The last two even designed exclusive totes for SocialDesigner.com, which will be sold online with proceeds benefiting nine different causes and their charities of choice. The event took place at the Extreme Wow Suite at W New York.

Much seafood — not just Canadian — is problematic on environmental grounds (or social justice grounds, in Latin America). If you have to eat seafood, check out http://www.montereybayaquarium.org/cr/seafoodwatch.aspx and also learn about conditions of workers in the country of origin.
Dem seals are eatin’ all the cod!
