Earth's Guardians
There are Earth
Guardians located all over our planet and out in space. They are
pushing stranded whales back out to sea, conducting research in
universities, tromping through rainforests gathering data, testing groundsoils for toxic pollution, studying animal and insect behavior,
lobbying for environmental protection laws, collecting seeds for seed
banks to ensure species survival, cleaning up toxic spills, taking core
samples of glacial ice, working in medical clinics in war zones, studying Earth from space, removing invasive species, researching new
methods for alternative energy sources and sustainable living, diving
deep into the depths of the ocean, tracking poachers of endangered
species, restoring natural ecosystems, working for ethical social and
environmental justice, feeding the hungry, dedicating themselves to
world peace, and on and on. There are people out there on
the front lines, and in many cases risking their lives for all of us and
for future
generations.

Below we have listed but a few of the many, many groups
organized throughout the world committed to protecting and preserving the environment and
biodiversity, guarding against unethical and illegal practices
which cause harm to the environment and species, providing humanitarian
assistance worldwide, and promoting a peaceful and sustainable world.

Learn about their activities, and offer support where you can...either
