Don't do anything you wouldn't want to have to explain to paramedics. Trust me, I'm a pilot.
OP,
I can appreciate this cause is important to you. Each of us has their own beliefs and values, and they all hold importance to a greater or lesser extent to each of us. Now, here's my problem.
While the cause, I'm sure, is very important to you, it in all likelihood does not hold the same amount of significance for every other forum-goer. I've gotten so many spams about awareness for this cause, to be honest, I'm tired of hearing about it. While awareness is great, that's all it is; awareness. Were it that I could actually do something, like send some money or supplies, as in disaster relief, it would be a different story. However, being on the exact opposite side of the globe, where I cannot do anything to help in any way, I really can't expect myself to be interested.
I'll admit, I'm not familiar with the intricacies of all of this, but I do know myself well enough to know that I can't get involved with anything if I don't see any real-world results. I can wish all I want for my problems to be resolved, but unless I take direct action to resolve it, my problems will remain; I can't wish them away. Additionally, as much as I would like to have the time to sit through a half-hour video, I don't. I'm a high school student, and am heavily involved in a lot of extracurricular activities. I would like to spend countless hours in front of a computer screen watching touching videos like yours, but I don't have the time, nor the patience.
Finally, this forum is to discuss the universe and canon of Bungie's games. In case you are unaware, your topic relates to the real world. An appropriate place to create this topic and promote awareness to your cause would be in The Flood. It is frequented by many, and would fit the topic requirements.
Call me heartless if you will, but in my own personal opinion, I am not heartless, but realistic. OP, I wish you all the best of luck in promoting your cause, but please, at the very least, stick it in the Flood or on a social media site, where more people who are interested will take notice.
