Clergy Letter Project
The Clergy Letter Project
The Clergy Letter Project is an endeavor designed to demonstrate that religion and science can be compatible and to elevate the quality of the debate of this issue. At this site Christian Clergy, Unitarian Universalists and Rabbis can sign a statement in support of the teaching of evolution. Scientists interested in working with clergy members to answer questions about all aspects of evolution can also join a database of consultants.
 
Fossil Finders
Fossil Finders
Fossil Finders is a collaboration between Cornell University Department of Education and the Paleontological Research Institution (PRI) in Ithaca, New York. The project will develop curriculum and resources and an interactive website for upper elementary and middle level students and their teachers. The project focuses on learning about evolutionary concepts, through an authentic inquiry-based investigation of Devonian-aged fossils.

Geoscientists-in-the-Parks
Geoscientists-in-the-Parks
Geoscientists-in-the-Parks partners geoscience students and experts with volunteers to conduct scientific research that helps the U.S. National Park Service better understand and manage its natural resources. Participants may assist with research, synthesis of scientific literature, geologic mapping, geographic information system analysis, site evaluations, resource inventorying and monitoring, impact mitigation, developing brochures and informative media presentations, and educating park staff as well as park visitors.

International Darwin Day Foundation
The International Darwin Day Foundation
"We need our elected leaders to speak out about the importance of scientific knowledge and its contribution to the advancement of humanity, and send a signal that religious infiltration into our science classrooms will not be tolerated. That's why we're asking you to sign our petition urging President Obama to recognize Darwin Day."
 
Keep Libel Laws out of Science
Keep Libel Laws out of Science
The Keep Libel Laws out of Science campaign was launched following the use of the English libel laws to silence critical discussion of medical practice and scientific evidence discouraging debate, denying the public access to the full picture and encouraging the use of the courts to silence critics.
 
Mastodon Matrix Project
Mastodon Matrix Project
The Mastodon Matrix Project needs citizen volunteers to analyze actual samples of fossil matrix (the term for the material in which a fossil is found) from a mastodon fossil excavated in New York.
Volunteers sort through the matrix to find ancient shells, bones, pieces of plants, and rocks from the time when the mastodon lived and died. The discoveries will be sent back to the Paleontological Research Institution, where they will be cataloged and further analyzed by paleontologists to help scientists form a true picture of the ecology and environment in which the mastodon lived.
 
National Science Digital Library
The National Science Digital Library
The National Science Digital Library encourages citizens to help enlarge and strengthen their library of high quality resources and tools that support science, technology, engineering, and mathematics education. Developers of content in these subject areas, National Science Foundation grantees, educators and learners, and all other members of the community are welcome to recommend digital resources for the library. These resources include activities, lesson plans, Web sites, simulations, or any materials that help educators meet the demands of an increasingly complex technology-based world.
 
Open Dinosaur Project
The Open Dinosaur Project
This one is more about getting involved rather than activism. The ODP was founded to involve scientists and the public alike in developing a comprehensive database of dinosaur limb bone measurements, to investigate questions of dinosaur function and evolution. Laypeople and amateurs are more than welcome.
 
Project Steve
Project Steve
"Project Steve" is a tongue-in-cheek parody of a long-standing creationist tradition of amassing lists of "scientists who doubt evolution" or "scientists who dissent from Darwinism." Scientist Steves, stand and be counted!

Science, Just Science Campaign Petition
Please sign this petition if you are a UK citizen who feels as strongly about the issue of teaching just science in UK science classrooms as they do.
 
Academic Freedom Petition
Support Academic Freedom
Across America, the freedom of scientists, teachers, and students to question Darwin is coming under increasing attack by self-appointed defenders of the theory of evolution who are waging a malicious campaign to demonize and blacklist anyone who disagrees with them.

You can help by signing the Academic Freedom Petition and standing up for free speech and free scientific inquiry.
