National Audubon Society
http://www.audubon.org
Wildlife faced a bleak future at the beginning of the 20th century. There were no laws to control hunting of birds and animals. Birds were slaughtered by the millions. Their plumes were used for decorating hats, their nests were robbed for eggs, and many species were hunted for food. Entire species such as the passenger pigeon, Carolina parakeet, and great auk were exterminated.
George Bird Grinnell, editor of Forest and Stream, was one of the first to speak up against the mindless slaughter. In 1886 he encouraged his readers to join him in forming the country's first bird preservation organization, the Audubon Society. The society was named after the American naturalist and wildlife painter John James Audubon, who lived from 1785 to 1851. In only three months more than 38,000 people joined the society. Overwhelmed by the response, Grinnell had to disband the group in 1888.
Greenpeace
http://www.greenpeace.org
As borders and definitions dissolve, protecting the 'environment' is increasingly a test of democracy 'Environment' can no longer be meaningfully separated from health, quality of life, democracy, education, economy or trade. Citizens can act across borders, for or against international brands, not just via the media but increasingly direct, independent of 'the media', via the internet.
Those who bemoan the loss of government power through globalization, should realize that the people are now beginning to catch up with the influence of multinational companies and previously unaccountable 'global' institutions.
