http://www.greenzebraguide.ca/Resources.php (This is a good one! It has links to websites that teach you specific things like recycling and where to shop for organic food)

http://www.burnsbog.org/greenzebra.htm (This is where I originally found these sites.)

The Burns Bog Conservation, in North Delta, is trying to protect the peat bog. The great thing about the peat bog:"

• Peat bog store and filter 10% of the world's fresh water.
• A typical peat extractor will take up to 22cm of peat per year, however it grows at approximately 1mm per year.
• Carbon dioxide emissions from peatland exploitation are estimated to be 3 billion tonnes per year.
• A recent United Nations report estimates the preservation and restoration of peat bogs can reduce global greenhouse gas emissions by 10%."

So saving Burns Bog will actually improve the Earth's atmosphere and water. That's impressive.
