Description:

An international, non profit, environmental organization founded by veteran South African conservationist Lawrence Anthony, who recognised that new solutions were neccessary to reverse the dwindling spiral of life on Earth.

The Earth Organization is a non-profit, non-partisan, issue oriented organization. Our members come from all walks of life, from all cultures, races and religious backgrounds, all motivated by a common cause; to reverse the dwindling spiral of life on Earth, and create a healthy habitable Planet on which all life flourishes and prospers, and of which we can be proud.

The Earth Organization's international offices work in association with other environmental groups around the world in projects of mutual interest. One of these co-venture partners is The Earth Organization in the United States (a 501(c)3 corporation with non-profit status pending).

The Earth and practically all major life forms on it are currently in danger, as ecosystems become degraded and extinctions continue to escalate at an alarming rate. Global warming is real and the polar caps are melting.
