Pr�sentation de l'�diteur :

The authority on natural resource use and management agencies around the world.

Do you want to take action to protect Earth’s environment? Are you interested in learning more about wildlife conservation and environmental groups? The Conservation Directory 2015 is a great resource for budding environmental activists and scholars alike who want to achieve a peaceful, equitable, and sustainable future. This all-inclusive volume is an amazing resource that can help further these environmental goals.

The new and revised 2015 edition of the Conservation Directory is the most comprehensive listing of conservation and environmental organizations yet published, with information on more than four thousand government agencies, nongovernmental organizations, and colleges and universities, as well as more than eighteen thousand officials concerned with environmental conservation, education, and natural resource use and management.

Each entry contains detailed contact information, including names, addresses, and telephone numbers. Also included are selected email and Internet addresses, descriptions of program areas, senior staff by name and responsibility, principal publications, and more. Entries are categorized by organization and state or country and are indexed alphabetically and by subject on topics ranging from acid rain to zoology. Each person listed in the directory is also indexed alphabetically.

Revue de presse :

This is an eclectic collection of more than 4,000 mostly North American state, province, and federal agencies; nonprofit and for-profit organizations; and educational institutions with a few entries from other nations. Short descriptions and contact information are provided. Entries are alphabetically arranged by organization and state or country. As with any print directory, information can quickly go out of date (so users should check online), but most information here seems relatively current. There is a topical keyword index as well as a geographic index, which provides access to local names of similar entities not found in the alphabetical arrangement of the text. Suitable for public library collections in need of
materials on this specialized topic.” Booklist
