How do you volunteer to help the environment? ?

I'm trying to find ways to help save the environment (and human's health) through ways of volunteering. Please don't offer any of the ways to do it around your house, such as turning off electronics; I just want specific ways to go out and volunteer your time to help solve the current environmental problems. As many as you know of please.How do you volunteer to help the environment? ?Try to find an organization that concentrates on the environment. Lots of high schools have environment clubs. Ducks Unlimited works to preserve wetlands. Or the Nature Conservancy.



You can also try to find environmental organizations by searching at Charity Navigator or Guide Star.How do you volunteer to help the environment? ?There are lots of groups out there that help to protect the environment. Some groups get involved in rehabilitating local habitat, others do wildlife research. I got involved in an advocacy group several years ago and ended up making submissions to the Government about development proposals and initiating Court action to protect natural areas. Some groups look after injured wildlife, others involve community gardens. I was once involved in with people that learnt about composting and recycling and then provided training to others in the community.



Where I am from the local council has a community directory which lists all soughts of groups. Youo could probably get access to a community directory through your local library. Failing that contact your State/regional conservation agency, they may be able to give you some pointers.



Good luck.
