re: #843 Charles

A list of charities run by atheists and/or secular groups.

My favorite one on that list is The Nature Conservancy. They use the power of good old-fashioned capitalism to help the environment. Instead of whining about misuse of land, or trying to create political pressure, they simply do the obvious: They freakin’ buy the land at fair market value, and then set it aside permanently as undeveloped natural open space. I love it. No room for argument, no one is unhappy. No voting, no changing political winds. It’s almost like an alternative National Park system created privately.
