A Wiser Earth:
Imagine you're on holiday in a city in Thailand and you discover that the area's natural environment is suffering from the effects of tourism. Back home, you decide to support that local Thai environmental movement. But how do you tap into it? WiserEarth, offers an answer: an online database of organizations active on the issues of environmental protection and social justice. For two years, scores of volunteers in 15 countries have worked on the data bank, inputting information on some 125,000 organizations spread across the world. Visitors to the site will not only find well-known groups such as Amnesty International and the World Wildlife Fund, but also a Russian microfinance institution, a Turkish agency that offers help to street kids and an Islamic organization in Iran that teaches women skills so they can work in the electronics field.
