sfrent.net is committed to a sustainable future for humankind and for all beings on Spaceship Earth. A portion of our revenue is contributed regularly to projects devoted to rainforest preservation, wetlands, open spaces, biodiversity, species protection, education, empowerment, recycling, renewable resources, and sustainability. We invite you to participate in the creation of a sustainable future for the next millennium, and beyond.

Comprehending the bigger picture of global sustainability encompasses inextricably interconnected issues such as geometric population growth, escalating increases in per capita consumption, rapidly depleting non-renewable natural resources and materials, global warming and climate change, toxic environmental pollution, externalities which are not incorporated into economic and business models, damaging ecological impacts of activities such as monoculture, aquifers sucked dry, animal habitat and ecosystem destruction and population collapse, soil erosion and desertification, exhausted ocean fisheries, wholesale mammal and marine species extinctions, rainforest logging and clearing – the biomass capital of the world being rapidly consumed, following encroachment of apex-predator humans into every part of the world – these are all pieces of the same jigsaw puzzle.

The extinction of most other life forms on the planet is the price being paid for untrammeled increases in human population. But its unsustainable. How will it end?

Humans need to change to holistic social, political and economic paradigms in conducting our activities on the planet, both for the survival of the planet earth as an ecosystem, and for every species in it, including humans, so succeeding generations can live into a future that is worth living.

While there are a number of promising technologies, in renewable energy production, in automobile transportation etc, they are not being developed with urgency.  We support the  Foundation for a Sustainable Future, which works towards educating, involving and integrating  the business, political and academic communities so that sustainability is built into the design of the structures and systems of tomorrow.

The non-profit organizations below are doing great work - sfrent.net supports them, and also has a policy of matching tenant and staff donations to them:  the Footprint Network, Nature Conservancy, Earth Island Institute, Greenpeace, Friends of the Earth, Foundation for Deep Ecology, Post-Carbon Institute, Defenders of Wildlife, Natural Resources Defense Council,  Sea Shepherd Conservation, PETA, National Anti-Vivisection Society, Worldwatch Institute, World Resources Institute and Zero Population Growth.
