Tides Cool Planet Fund, eGrants.org
If you want to help reverse global warming but have no idea where to donate money, simply log on to the Tides Cool Planet fund. The fund is part of an innovative website called eGrants.org, a project of the San Francisco-based Tides Foundation, which supports dozens of progressive organizations working on a range of issues, from hate crimes to the environment to hunger relief. The Cool Planet Fund pools small donations from individual website users and distributes the money to 12 separate organizations fighting global warming on a variety of fronts, both local and global, like the Renewable Northwest Project, the Lousiana-based Alliance for Affordable Energy, and Greenpeace International. And, if you'd like, you can also donate money to other eGrants umbrella sites which allocate money for homeless shelters and earthquake disasters, including the recent ones in India and El Salvador.
