>> Thank you to Carol for the list of organizations which support birds and the environment. I want to add four others that folks might consider.

>> 1. The Trust for Public Land. I agree with the value of land trusts. TPL just provided funds to help the City of Bellevue to purchase property in the Coal Creek Area. The funds combined with King County and City money are being used to purchase the land and preserve it in perpetuity as part of King County and Bellevue city parks.

>> 2. Friends of Hakalau Forest. This project is sponsored by the Hawaii Community Foundation a 501(c)3 organization. It is doing a good job preserving forest land for Hawaiian native birds:  ‘Akiapola’au, ‘I’Iwi, ‘Akepa, ‘Alawi, ‘Oma’o, and Hawai’I ‘Elepaio. They are working to build an endowment to preserve the forest into the future.

>> 3. In their own words: Earthjustice is the premier nonprofit public interest environmental law organization. We wield the power of law and the strength of partnership to protect people’s health, to preserve magnificent places and wildlife, to advance clean energy, and to combat climate change. Their slogan: Because the earth needs a good lawyer.
