CITIZEN POWER ALLIANCE

How often have you come across a great story about climate change, sustainable energy or biodiversity, and wished you could share it with others who care deeply about the subject? This week, in preparation for Earth Day, you have your chance: Scientific American is partnering with NewsTrust, a not-for-profit Web site designed to "help people find good journalism online" by encouraging its readers to submit and review articles from across the Web.

We'd like to invite you to participate in this partnership by signing up for NewsTrust and submitting articles that relate to the environment. Everything from basic research findings to policy and lifestyle coverage is fair game.

Here's how it works: Once you sign up, the fastest way to get started is to go to the NewsTrust Environment section and click on the "For Review" tab. Under this tab you'll find stories submitted by other NewsTrust users in the Environment category that need reviews before they can appear on the NewsTrust home page or in the window that will appear on all environment stories on SciAm.com this week.
