Peace and survival of life on Earth as we know it are threatened by human activities that lack a commitment to humanitarian values.  Destruction of nature and natural resources results from ignorance, greed, and a lack of respect for the Earth's living things... .  It is not difficult to forgive destruction in the past, which resulted from ignorance.  Today, however, we have access to more information, and it is essential that we re-examine ethically what we have inherited, what we are responsible for, and what we will pass on to coming generations.  Clearly this is a pivotal generation... .  Our marvels of science and technology are matched if not outweighed by many current tragedies, including human starvation in some parts of the world, and extinction of other life forms... .  We have the capability and responsibility.  We must act before it is too late.
Tenzin Gyatso the fourteenth Dalai Lama

Best environmental directories

Last update: 14 Mar 2003.

Criteria for inclusion here: number of quality records relevant to the subject. We try to keep only the best starting point for each subject.

'Selected' = a list that makes a selection of best sources; 'all' = comprehensive list with some tools for preselection (short description, search tool, ...); 'metadatabase' is a complete searchable (meta)database. The lists are in English if no other language is mentionned.

You can link directly one of the best lists on your matter, or do it through our annotated list of directories Other hit parades for environmentalists are also available, and if you do not find anything, try selected internet search engines. Auxilliary lists (white pages, chemistry, etc.) can also be usefull for environmentalists.
