In April 2012, she spoke on the National Mall in Washington DC on Earth Day. She was also featured on MSN Causes on Earth Day 2012. In 2014, Münter began driving a race car modeled after an orca whale at the Talladega Speedway with a Blackfish theme to raise awareness about the controversial 2013 documentary criticizing Seaworld for placing orca whales in captivity. She raised $7,500 for the car through crowd-funding and had the remaining $107,500 given to her by The Simpsons co-creator Sam Simon, who was also an animal rights activist. During the autograph signing at the race, Münter passed out more than 100 copies of Blackfish DVDs. Personal life On March 17, 2009, Münter married Craig Davidson, an engineer, in a seaside wedding on New Zealand's Cathedral Cove beach. Her personal car is an electric Tesla Model S, which she charges with solar panels on the roof of her home. Münter identifies herself as being childfree: a position she largely owes to helping greatly reduce her ecological impact on the planet. She further believes that the decision to refrain from having any children must be normalized in order to deal with human overpopulation. She is also a patron of Population Matters in order to spread awareness regarding the issue. Münter is the sister-in-law of musician Bob Weir, one of the founding members of the Grateful Dead.
