If you are doing research or studying wetlands ecology, legal interests, conferences, publications,
restoration/protection, standards, including a few state sites, then you will want to check out this extensive directory of wetlands links from the National Wetlands Inventory. This is one of best collection of sites that I have seen on this topic.

A new exhibit at the Penn Museum, April 19, 2008 through May 3, 2009. Suviving: the Body of Evidence. You are a survivor. All of your ancestors were successful in surviving the challenges of life. Each of them inherited from their parents the characteristics that helped them to survive — through thousands of generations, and over millions of years, to you. In turn, you will pass on these features to your children and, through them, to your descendants.

This exhibition is about you — and all your fellow humans. Your body carries evidence of many distinctively human features that changed in your ancestors through the process of evolution.

Recently, EBSCO Publishing announced the release of GreenFILE, a bibliographic database of information about environmental concerns. This database is being made freely available at www.greeninfoonline.com.

GreenFILE indexes scholarly and general interest titles, as well as government documents and reports. This resource offers a unique perspective on the positive and negative ways humans affect the environment. Drawing on the connection between the environment and disciplines such as agriculture, education, law, health and technology, GreenFILE serves as an informative resource for anyone concerned about the issues facing our planet. The database contains nearly 300,000 records, full text for selected titles and searchable cited references for more than 200 titles as well.
