Yesterday I posted an announcement for The Rainforest Site, mentioning
that you can make it your homepage so that automatically by going online
you will donate 19.2 square feet of rainforest daily.
I just want to add that you need to make one click of the mouse (on the
green DONATE LAND-FREE button) in order to activate the donation. Doing
this once a day for a year adds up to 7008 square feet, or a chunk of
land 83.7 X 83.7 feet. That's pretty good for 365 taps of the finger.
Thank you,
Jack Eastman
Yesterday's announcement follows:
A SITE FOR SORE EYES
GreaterGood.com, an online shopping portal dedicated to charitable
giving, yesterday launched
the Rainforest Site, a website that lets people protect 19.2 square feet
of rainforest with a
single click of the mouse, as often as once a day. A group of rotating
site sponsors pay for
donations to a Nature Conservancy program that purchases and protects
rainforest land in Latin
America and the Caribbean. The Rainforest Site is patterned after the
Hunger Site, a successful
website that lets visitors click to help alleviate hunger through a
partnership with the U.N.
World Food Programme.

You can make the Raniforest Site your homepage so that once a day just
going online you
will be giving to save the rainforests. It's easy. Once you open the
site click on "What you can do"
then follow the directions.
