Back to the environment and virtual tree hugging. I've previously supported EDF http://www.edf.org/ in years past but I'm taking advantage of a 2 for 1 match available at the moment.
It's a charity run by proactive scientists. Among other initiatives they lobby congress, its nice to have folks like this in Washington DC rather than the usual Bankers, Oil industry, Big Pharm....etc. In addition to lobbying they work in commercial markets also.
Success stories include fighting AB32 which was a California proposition that would curb the state carbon cap and trade. They also collaborated with Wal-Mart for safer chemicals in their products.
When I'm wondering how well a non-profit handles its money I check out Charity Navigator. EDF scores well.
Proof for this week
