Need to sort the list of private organisations by country or as international. User talk:Alan Liefting

I found a lot of Canadian organizations just by going to the website of one organization I knew and manually 'spidering' through their links pages. I'm sure the same can be done for other countries. In response to Alan's comment, I have used subcategories for countries in the list of private orgs, but didn't for governmental because there aren't too many at this point. I was surprised that there is so little on environmental organizations on Wikipedia; I would have thought the environmental-type to be WP's prime audience! RealGrouchy 15:47, 30 May 2004 (UTC)

I'm surprised too. I intend to work on this, especially the UK organizations. I've started doing bits on the Friends of the Earth pages, since that's the one I am most closely involved in. Help or further discussion appreciated. --FrankP 19:41, 15 Nov 2004 (UTC)

the list of environmental organizations doesnt belong under Environmental science! it should appear under environmentalism or environmental movement, etc. Environmental science is strictly about the science of analyzing environmental effects. let others weigh in on this. regards Anlace 02:18, 1 March 2006 (UTC)

Here's a list from my paper on Littering: Sierra Club, Keep America Beautiful, Environemtal Defense, Alliance on Environmetal Education. <references:Spacek, S.

[edit] List or category?

This page has been superseded by the category system. What shall we do with this page? It is difficult to maintain and may become quite large. Alan Liefting 21:08, 6 June 2006 (UTC)

I like both : list and category are complementary . for example for the groups by countries, it's easier to consult a list. although somebody take times to categorize, but sometimes it's irrelevant (one group in a country ...) --Ayanoa 22:35, 6 June 2006 (UTC)
