Union of Concerned Scientists. Invasive Species Info.
The worldwide movement of non-native organisms damages the
environment and endangers native species, undermining decades
of conservation efforts. Because federally regulated international
trade is the source of most invaders, we must reverse some U.S.
policies and improve others. Lots of information here- Science,
Impacts, Solutions, What you can do. ***

recommendations for enhancing the science base in this field,
improving our detection of potential invaders, and refining our
ability to predict their impact.

invasive species is second only to habitat loss as a cause for species
endangerment. Many states have developed unique programs to
address invasive species.
