OnEarth, the award-winning environmental magazine, explores politics, nature, wildlife, culture, science, health, the challenges that confront our planet, and the solutions that promise to heal and protect it. As the magazine's tagline says, it is an independent publication of the Natural Resources Defense Council. Contributors include America's finest writers and poets — Rick Bass, Ian Frazier, William Greider, Edward Hoagland, Elizabeth Kolbert, Maxine Kumin, Bill McKibben, Richard Manning, Mary Oliver, Alex Shoumatoff, and others — whose original work appears on pages filled with prize-winning photography and art.
