This is an odd article of which I'm not sure of my feelings. It does, however, raise some fairly interesting points, and is a good deal of food for thought. I had heard many similar things before, but this went into more depth than I'd seen before.

American Forests
http://www.americanforests.org/
This is a website I found through a newsletter I subscribe to. It's a site about the importance of forests. It's something I tend to agree with quite heartily, since even my name speaks of the importance of forests to me. Mostly, it's informational, but it does provide links to groups who use donations to plant trees. Some people use it to offset their carbon emissions. I'm not sure about my stance on that issue, but I do support the planting of new trees, regardless of whether or not offsetting carbon emissions is effective or not (I just haven't done much research, and have heard some speculation that it's not... though that could just be some anti-environmental nut ranting, too. I'll have to check into it). It's a good site, regardless.

Defenders of Wildlife
http://www.defenders.org/index.php
This is a worthy organization whose site I was connected to through care2. They're a long-established charity working to (get this) protect wildlife from extinction. Apart from donating and joining, the site is also useful for getting information on animals which are being protected. I took particular interest in the sections on wolves and manatees (which are some of my favorites), but there are many others being covered, including dolphins, buffalo, and mountain lions (among others). It's definitely a worthwhile cause, and one I might want to check back on.

Pagan Online Campus
http://www.thepagancampus.net/
I got this in a link from a message board I'm a part of. It looks like something I'd really like to get into. I've been itching to get back into some sort of learning environment, and leaning towards topics of a spiritual bent. Unfortunately, most of those degree programs are fairly useless, and rather expensive, so I haven't found them particularly practical. This, however, is free. It might not help with job credentials, but I think it would be fun and informative for how I'd like to use it. I'm definitely thinking of signing up for the next quarter of classes, which start next week.
