Dear Fellow Concerned Earth-Lovers,

We are pleased to announce the publication of BWZ, the online Better World magazine 
Issue #4. As always, see http://www.betterworld.com 

This issue is packed with specific "how-to" information that anyone can
apply in their own lives, to help make a better world. We think you'll find
this issue so useful, you'll want to read it virtual cover to virtual cover,
and send a copy to your offline friends. 

Simple, painless, and effective things YOU can do...natural home recipes for
cleansers and pest control...how to reduce your solid waste...recycling and
composting...it's all here! Plus: an exciting report on how the oceans
absorb "greenhouse gases" and may inhibit global warming; a look at the
successes of the Hurricane Island Outward Bound school; a review of Barry
Harrington's new book on how teachers can get assistance and donations for
"better world" projects in the classroom; an editorial on the changing ethos
of environmental activism; Peter Kinder's defense of ethical investing;
online discussion groups; and more! 

While you're there, check out:
- Deva Lifewear's new online catalog of cool, natural unbleached fiber
clothing, you don't know what you're missing! It's great stuff and we're
pleased to have them as a Better World Member company. 
- The WebActive interview with Chris Nelder, Editor-in-Chief of BWZ, in Real Audio. 
- FREE guides to socially responsible investment.
-The "BWZ Back Issues", with a complete listing of every article ever published in 
BWZ.

And if you have a Better World type of site, we'd like to help you promote it.We're 
creating the ultimate "Eco-links" resource at: http://www.betterworld.com/BW/links/ , 
with everything from a comprehensive Web directory, daily eco-news, how to subscribe 
to the best newsletters and discussion groups, and the BW search engine. 

Point your browser to http://www.betterworld.com/BW/links/addlink.htm , and add 
yourself a link! It's free, you get to offer your own description, and you'll be in a 
directory among Web sites that share our goal of making a better world. Not only that, 
but you'll also be entered as a candidate for "BWZ Featured Site" with a whole page 
devoted to your cause and your site listed prominently in the next issue of BWZ!!!

If you wish, we'd certainly appreciate a reciprocal link to http://www.betterworld.com . 
This is by no means a requirement to be listed in the "BWZ Web Resources Directory", 
nor is it expected. But the exchange of the important information that we both have on 
our sites is an important element in spreading the word.

If you don't LOVE this issue of BWZ, and find that it motivates you to make
some simple changes to help make a better world, we want to know why! And if
you DO find it inspirational, well, let us know that too! Add your two cents
in the discussion groups, write a Letter to the Editor, write to the authors
directly--but whatever you do, please tell us what you think! 

Yours for a better world,

Lee Thompson (editor@betterworld.com)
Managing Editor
