We've been blogging about biodiversity loss over at the Blue Marble quite a bit, and Gone, the lead story in our May/June issue, does a great job of covering the issue. If you've already read Gone and it left you wanting to learn and do more, then check out the latest edition of the "Informed Dissent" newsletter, which is full of ideas and ways to take action.

Go here to sign up to receive Informed Dissent every two weeks. Get informed, get involved.
