Conservation
| We're continually reviewing new sites and adding resources, and appreciate your comments and suggestions. Suggest a link here |
| Daily environmental news stories are covered on this very current
site. A great source of information, and a look at the future of the
Internet. |
| The University of Manitoba, in addition to explaining its program and
giving a nice Environmental Science summary, offers links to
environmental sites, some U.S., more Canadian. |
| This excellent site is dedicated to education and research on
the coral reefs of Hawai’i and the world, and to their preservation.
There’s a virtual tour of the coral reefs of Hawai’i,
information on its marine life, sources for coral reef information from
around the world, a discussion area, Hawai’i and reef links, and
more. |
| Available in English and French, IFDN is produced by a New
Brunswick paper company in conjunction with schools and educators in the
region. It’s an easily navigated gold mine of forestry and nature
resources including a glossary, virtual tours, a software toolbox, FAQ
with a chance to ask your question, and more. Don’t miss the
Naturalist’s Notebook of short profiles on local wildlife, with
archives. |
| This organization supports politicians whose voting records show they
support conserving and protecting the environment. You can also check
your representative's voting record on environmental issues here. |
| This is the National Renewable Energy Laboratory. Want to know how
much electricity is provided by wind energy in the U.S.? This is the
place to find out. Menus are all graphic-based so be warned. |
| This web site of the world famous bird conservation organization
contains history and origins of the society, a biography of John James
Audubon, membership information, articles on their current campaigns,
sponsored education programs, publications and shows, and much more. An
enjoyable site for the bird lover in all of us. |
| In addition to their famous features on individual cultures, the folks
at National Geographic offer here a wide range of options including
talk, answers to your geography questions, and scenic drive information
with lodging, maps, and even car games. A great site. |
| The NOAA's goal is to promote global environmental stewardship in
order to conserve and wisely manage the nation's marine and coastal
resources. |
| You can link from here to hundreds of museums, botanical gardens,
conservation sites, and libraries around the world. Many of these are
truly spectacular. Sources are divided by continent and arranged
alphabetically. |
| There's some good research information on rainforests here, and a lot
of links. Kids' Corner offers an art gallery, stories of rainforest
life, and ways kids can help. Also very helpful (for those of us who are
lazy) are their online letter writing campaigns. Just fill out a form
with your e-mail address and sign the pre-written letter and it is faxed
or e-mailed for you. |
| Information on how to recycle most recyclable materials and links to
many recycling organizations. |
| Learn about the environment, talk about the issues in specific chat
rooms, and place bids in their online auction gallery. (All proceeds go
to undergraduate and graduate programs that are environment related.)
Cool. |
| If you’re thinking of incorporating a nature study by
naturalizing your school grounds or a nearby area, SNAP may be able to
help with information and grant money. Follow the SNAPnet option on this
page for great environmental links and Internet supported nature projects. |
| The official site of the organization that works to save the
environment by influencing public policy. One of the oldest and best
known conservation organizations, and a pretty good Web site. |
| Solstice is "your online source for sustainable energy
information" and it’s very impressive. Among the many gems here:
interactive multimedia CD-ROMs like The Greening of the White House, The
Sun’s Joules multimedia encyclopedia on renewable energy (with
teaching helps), School Energy Doctor software, tons more. |
| Starfish is "an innovative collection of free databases
providing [college] educators with interdisciplinary environmental and
sustainability curriculum materials." Included are syllabi, reading
lists, teaching techniques, links, a helpful example scenario, and more.
Some of this would be useful at pre-college levels as well. |
| This organization focuses on saving the world's oceans and beaches.
There's a wealth of information about its mission, efforts, and policies
on this site, which features a lot of updated news and coming events. |
