About GreenWatch

Green Watch is an on-line database and information clearinghouse providing factual information on over 500 non-profit environmental groups. This free service identifies the location, leadership and membership of each profiled group. It tells you about their activities and uncovers their sources of funding, including government, foundation and corporate grants. Green Watch also produces timely news reports and analyses of the environmental movement.

Ever since the first annual Earth Day in 1970, environmental organizations have grown increasingly vocal. Supported by wealthy foundations and in some cases government grants, these tax-exempt groups orchestrate political, legal and public relations campaigns that aim to protect and improve the environment. But green activism, however well intentioned, often harms the environment it would save from Corporate America. It misrepresents the real gains made in cleaning the nations air and water. And its needlessly costly.

As the most extensive on-line research tool profiling the environmental movement, GreenWatch.org informs the public and policy makers.
