About Our Organization...

The EnviroLink Network was created in 1991 by Josh Knauer, then a freshman at Carnegie Mellon University. The network has grown from a simple mailing list of 20 student activists to become one of the world's largest environmental information clearinghouses.

At EnviroLink, we are committed to promoting an alternative sustainable society through the use of new communication technologies, in an effort to connect individuals and organizations. We recognize that the technologies that we utilize are just tools, and not the final answer to our societal communication problems.

The EnviroLink Network is a non-profit organization, run completely by volunteers. It is only through the generosity of our members that we are able to exist and maintain our level of service and quality.

If you are able to donate money, in-kind services, computer hardware or any other kind of help, please let us know by contacting us via one of the ways listed below:
