Worldchanging

A non-profit organization called Worldchanging runs a blog that has quickly gained a sizable readership. What is Worldchanging? According to their site,

Worldchanging shows us a different world - the future we could create. A bright green future, a sustainable, prosperous, dynamic future for all. On a planet full of problems, Worldchanging calls attention to solutions, illuminating tools, models and ideas for building that future.

Recently they announced a campaign to raise resources for their organization. No matter what you may think of some of their perspectives, the site has some very interesting tidbits and I have learned a lot from following its dialogue.

To help promote the campaign, photographer Edward Burtynsky has created a movie showing some of the devastating effects of rampant pollution in certain areas of the world. The photography is stunning. I encourage you to check it out.
