Save Florida Panther from Extinction E-mail

National Wildlife Federation: "There are fewer than 200 Florida panthers left in the wild--making it one of the country's most critically endangered species. Federal conservation programs have been crucial in preventing the Florida panther from going extinct, but right now these and many other programs that are important to wildlife conservation are at risk of getting cut by Congress.

"You have the power to help save the Florida panther -- make sure crucial conservation programs are not gutted by Congress' efforts to reduce the federal deficit. Take Action! Help save the Florida panther by editing and sending a message to your members of Congress, urging them to oppose cuts to crucial conservation programs." >>>Take Action

 

Eco Tip

Lower your thermostat temperature in winter and raise it in summer. In winter, set your thermostat to 68 degrees or less during the day (and wear a sweater) and 55 degrees or less at night (and add an extra blanket). Wear less or use a fan instead of air-conditioning on all but the hottest summer days. When you must use air-conditioning, set your thermostat to 78 degrees or more.  More tips...
