We're continually reviewing new sites and adding resources, and appreciate your comments and suggestions. Suggest a link here


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.

This is a great site for information and encouragement in being as energy efficient as we can "to help ourselves, our children, and our environment." Of a dozen categories, Residential Indoor Air Quality alone has dozens of subtopics. There's also an extensive glossary of housing terms. Altogether, an excellent resource.

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.

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.

This organization focuses on saving the world's oceans and beaches. There's a wealth of information about their mission, efforts, and policies on this site, which features a lot of updated news and events.

A large and widely varied resource on Texas environmental conditions, particularly near border towns. The section on water is very extensive, and links to an encyclopedia to provide even more information. Photo essays and maps help round out an excellent resource.

US Environmental Policy is easily available to the public on this very informative but mostly text-based site. Still, a great source for research. Sections on state, local, and tribal governments, statistics, and areas for students and teachers are offered.

A searchable online database and a huge store of publicly available information about wetlands, wastewater, etc., from the EPA. Maps are also available as part of this useful resource.

Graphics intensive, but worth it--this site is full of information on how to reduce waste and environmental pollution. Contains links to other environmental and conservation sites as well.

The mission of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is to conserve, protect, and enhance fish and wildlife and their habitats for the continuing benefit of the American people.

This site allows students to take a virtual tour of the Galapagos islands, and discusses the history, scientific importance, and issues facing the islands. Aimed at students K-12, but a great resource for all.

This site details the water quality component of efforts by the U.S. Geological Survey to research the coastal ecosystems of the Bay area and how they are impacted by human disturbances. It's interesting reading and well presented, with an excellent glossary to help with technical terms.

A neat way to get the latest weather in your area and elsewhere in the world.

The website of The Nature Conservancy is a great place to find out what's new in the area of nature conservation from the organization that works to conserve natural habitats and species by purchasing the land and waters they need to survive. A really nice feature of the site is the full availability of The Nature Conservancy's monthly magazine.

We want to empower sustainable, practical, honest, and fair standards that raise the bar for the health of the environment and it's habitats, the people that live in it, and choices we all make.

The Global Greenhouse Warming web site contains over 100 informative pages on climate change; including sections on greenhouse gases, current and potential impacts, extreme weather events, alternative and renewable energy, nuclear energy, polar caps, climate and society, sea level rise, ocean acidification and actions that can be undertaken to reduce global warming.
