Just Released, Internet Filtering in China in 2004-2005
“The OpenNet Initiative tested China’s Internet filtering of web content, blog postings, and e-mail correspondences. Our testing found efforts to prevent access to a wide range of sensitive materials, from pornography to religious material to political dissent. Unlike the filtering systems in many other countries, China’s filtering regime appears to be carried out at various control points and also to be changing over time. China operates the most extensive, technologically sophisticated, and broad-reaching system of Internet filtering in the world.”

Just Released, Most Endangered Rivers of 2005 announced
“Some 860 billion gallons of untreated sewage foul America’s rivers with pollution and make millions of Americans sick each year, but the federal government has turned its back on the problem, warned American Rivers with the release of its 2005 America’s Most Endangered Rivers report. These problems are particularly apparent and poised to get worse along the Susquehanna River, which tops this year’s list of rivers facing uncertain futures and crucial turning points.”
