Yes! Spread the word too. Also, if you know a professional that might be able to help him out with the legal/politics/etc., consider reaching out. He's a sharp guy but it's still a tough task and he is going to need all the help he can get. And so does our planet. Donation link: link Pitch for non-techies: ▶ this video
