Earth Day Countdown!

National Environmental Education Week is April 18-22. This is the official countdown preparation to Earth Day, which is April 22nd. Here are some great online resources to learn more about our earth and how to make it a better place:
Extreme Ice Survey - a wide-ranging glacier study that uses time-lapse photography and video to document the rapid changes now occurring on the Earth's glacial ice.
The Day the Water Died - a film produced by the Sierra Club documenting the impact of the Exxon Valdez oil spill that occurred in Alaska on March 24, 1989.
Energy Estimator - A tool from the Solar Energy Research and Education Foundation that estimates how much electricity you can produce through solar and wind power in your own backyard.
It Starts at Home - A National Geographic article in which the author chronicles his attempt to reduce his CO2 emissions by 80%.
United Nations Environment Program - The Atlas of our Changing Environment is a Google Earth mashup in which you click on one of the icons on the map, and it shows a picture and a story of an environmental impact of the region. Very informative and visual!
