Tropical Forests and Coral Reefs Need Your Help Now

 Environment  (tags: animals, conservation, ecosystems, forests, habitat, protection )

A bill to protect tropical forests and coral reefs may come up for a vote soon in the U.S. Senate as part of a package of legislation that some senators are opposing. We need to show an outpouring of support for the tropical forest and coral reefs...

There are also people who are planting trees in the Rain Forest.

Yes, indeed Michael. For example, The Nature Conservancy has a Billion Tree Program where they are planting trees in the rainforest. And anyone can help - just a dollar plants a tree!

Noted thanks Chris, and will act on another cause identical to this on the web somewhere since I am not a US Resident ... dang it all, get that tick out!

Woooops, my apology. Anyone who lives outside of the USA may sign up with WWF and select your appropriate country in the sign up. Though when going into completing the ACTUAL letter, I had to enter my country details in another text field to reflect country where I live. Then for state and zip code I entered assumed details to work around the issue.
