well, the National Resource Defense Council would defend the rainforests as well, and are more scientifically savvy and active in the courts...www.nrdc.org
i also like the Union of Concerned Scientists www.ucsusa.org, but they are more the science aspect and not so much specifically defending our last wild places, as the one above...however their members are those who report the current state of affairs to the white house and other high level authorities (although you'll see from their website that much of current research is ignored, manipulated or otherwise abused)...check them out?
