Dear pierre,

In this week's newsletter:
* How your clicks help protect the Guaraqueçaba Reserve in Brazil
* Shop & fight hunger -- 50% off at Nordstrom & Mercata, winter 
  sales at L.L.Bean and Eddie Bauer, & more!
* Rainforest facts

HOW YOUR CLICKS HELP PROTECT THE GUARAQUECABA RESERVE IN BRAZIL
The rich ecosystem of the Guaraqueçaba region is the largest
intact area of Atlantic Forest in Brazil. It contains 171 of
Brazil's 202 endangered species including the jaguar, yellow-throated
caiman, tapir, red-tailed parrot, and the black-faced lion tamarin. 
Once occupying more than 400,000 square miles, this expansive 
landscape has been reduced to less than eight percent of its original 
extent. Athough 775,000 acres of the forest are now a protected 
biosphere reserve and considered by scientists to be one of the 
world's top three conservation priorities, the region still faces 
many threats. Rapid development, buffalo ranching, unsustainable 
activities such as logging, heart-of-palm gathering, overfishing, 
and hunting, are quickly eroding the Reserve's resource base. 

Your clicks on The Rainforest site are helping to protect the 
Guaraqueçaba Reserve from further destruction. The Nature 
Conservancy's Adopt An Acre program is working with local partners to
protect the Reserve by bolstering protection of public lands, 
establishing private reserves, and assisting in targeted community 
development.
