Island Resources Foundation's web site features environmental information useful to the development of small tropical islands - a 25-year mission for the Foundation.

The mission of the WRC is to promote research in the Natural Sciences with particular reference to the conservation of Cockpit Country; to act as a repository for this research; to disseminate information to ensure the best-possible protection and management of Cockpit Country. Cockpit Country is a rugged, inaccessible area of inland Jamaica. These very characteristics have given it special importance and it is proposed that it become a World Heritage Site. It is an island-within-an-island of specially-adapted biodiversity found nowhere else in the world and is a last refuge for some species driven from the rest of Jamaica by humans.

The Cambridge Conservation Forum (CCF) exists to strengthen links and develop new synergies across the diverse community of conservation practitioners and researchers based in and around Cambridge , working at local, national and international levels in order to promote the conservation of wildlife.

The Australian Rainforest Conservation Society, founded in 1982, is a national, non-government organisation with headquarters in Brisbane. Its goal, through research, lobbying, public education and grass-roots support, is to protect, repair and restore the rainforests of Australia and to maximise the protection of forest biodiversity.

Our aim: "To gather and disseminate information, research and build experience in order to protect, enhance and manage biodiversity in settled areas of SEQ".

The California Biodiversity Center (CBC) fosters collaborations between the Berkeley Natural History Museums, Berkeley's Natural History Field Stations, and other partners studying changes in California's biological diversity, past, present, and future.

Cameroons cutting edge institution for integrated research on biodiversity, forestry and horticulture and provides services in a wide range of fields including wildlife, botany, ecology, vegetation mapping and socio-economics

Volunteer organization in western Cook County, Illinois. The Des Plaines River Valley Restoration Project protects the environment by preserving natural habitat. We remove invasive aliens--non-native plants like buckthorn and garlic mustard--to make room for native plants, including threatened and endangered species. It's called ecological restoration and our goal is to increase biodiversity.

Biodiversity is the word we use to describe the variety of animal and plant species, genes and ecosystems on the planet. A rainforest is not simply the trees, but many other types of plants, mammals (including humans), birds, reptiles, amphibians, fish, invertebrates, bacteria and fungi, plus the non-living elements like soil, water and air. Altogether they make up a total living system known as an ecosystem.

Information about taxonomy, natural history, distribution, abundance, and ecology of many different groups of living things. Site also has identification, mapping, and databasing tools to help students, teachers, citizen scientists, land managers, and professional biologists study and monitor nature.
