Dr. Glen Barry is the President and Founder of Ecological Internet (EI). Dr. Barry is a conservation biologist and ecologist, a writer of essays and blogs, and a computer specialist and technology researcher. He has been described as providing "the global ecological conscience" necessary to address global ecological change, by working for global ecological sustainability.

Ecological Internet specializes in the construction of environmental portals with unique information retrieval tools and original analysis. EI's web sites (ClimateArk, Forests.org, Eco Earth, Water Conserve and Ocean Conserve) are widely recognized as premier environmental news, information and analysis web sites, and enjoy some 30,000 users a day from around the world. As the leader of EI, Dr. Barry carries out a range of duties requiring disparate proficiencies including ecological research, campaign strategizing, computer programming and NGO management.

Dr. Barry holds a Ph.D. in "Land Resources" from the University of Wisconsin-Madison, a Masters of Science in "Conservation Biology and Sustainable Development" also from Madison, and a Bachelor of Arts in "Political Science" from Marquette University. His research has been into use of the Internet to facilitate conservation outcomes, where his scholarly insights have been repeatedly tested through years of observation of actual Internet campaigns on behalf of the Earth. He is deeply committed to environmental sustainability, and his rainforest conservation and Internet campaigning have been supported by the MacArthur Foundation, Threshold Foundation and many others. He has worked within academia, multi-lateral organizations and non-governmental organizations.

Dr. Barry is single with a 13 year old daughter over whom he fawns, and a well trained and loyal golden retriever. He resides in rural Wisconsin where he practices green living. He enjoys walking, reading, tree planting, gardening, traveling and movies. Perhaps nothing brings him more satisfaction than waxing philosophically on environmental sustainability on his Earth Meanders personal blog.
