- Fight Global Warming-Environmental Defense FundLearn more about global warming and how you can help stop it at this site from the Environmental Defense Fund.
- Rainforest2ReefA very interesting project to help offset carbon emissions/global warming by halting deforestation. Their work focuses on an area of the Selva Maya rainforest known as the Calakmul Biosphere Reserve. So far they have protected 182,000 acres of rain forest and prevented millions of carbons from entering the atmosphere. You can read more about the project at the site and donate here as well.
- Help the HoneybeesThe website for Haagen-Daz's campaign to save the rapidly vanishing honeybee population. In all honesty, I've been as equally concerned with this issue as I have been with global warming. It's hard to believe that there are far fewer honeybees now than there were just 5 years ago or so! It's such a shame, especially since they do so much good for the world around us and live in harmony (or at least try to) with us humans. Anyway, please visit this site and find out what you can do to help keep these little guys alive. They truly are Nature's little helpers!
