Although
we'd love to have you stay and browse here indefinitely, there is much to learn and much
that can be done to preserve and enhance our environment throughout the entire planet.
The chief advantage of the Internet is
that it can link together people who share common interests and concerns practically
instantaneously, even though their own habitats may span the globe. Many individuals and
organizations who have exerted much effort on behalf of Earth's ecology have also created
a presence on the World Wide Web, and Friends of Narbeck will strive to keep updated links
to as many of those that we can, particularly sites related to wetlands, the habitat they
create and all the benefits they provide.
