In 2007, he went on a trip to a refugee camp in Darfur. Here's what he said when he came back:
"I met a little girl, who, at one and a half, had been wrapped in a carpet and burned by the LRA. She was sick when we met her and we took her to the hospital and she ended up having HIV as well. The sad thing is that's not really anything special. Everyone around her had their own situation. It's just endless."
”[People in Darfur looked at me] not like I was just some actor from Hollywood who was there to have an experience. They looked at me like I was somebody who could really do something. And I didn’t consider myself in that way,”
“I still can see the way they looked at me.”Watch the video below of Ryan talking about his experience with John Prendergast from Enough Project:
PETA - People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals
In 2011, Ryan wrote a letter to the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) on PETA's behalf calling on the agency to revoke its approval of a foam-based extermination method that kills birds by submerging them in foam to slowly suffocate them. This process can take up to 15 minutes and is as traumatic and panic-inducing as killing birds by choking them, strangling them, smothering them, or burying them alive.

"If dogs and cats were killed in this way, the person committing these acts would be charged with cruelty to animals," Gosling wrote. He went on to urge the USDA to put its stamp of approval on a less cruel alternative that uses carbon dioxide to painlessly render birds unconscious and that has already been approved by veterinary experts.
In 2008, Ryan wrote letters to KFC and McDonald's about the conditions in which chickens are raised and slaughtered, urging the fast-food chains to adopt PETA's proposed animal welfare reforms.
