Call for the Wild Foundation   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08) The decline of the native Cutthroat trout of the American West was caused by decades of wholesale slaughter by Colorado pioneers and the artificial introduction of competing non-native trout species like brooks, rainbows, and browns. At this point Greenbacks are still struggling on a survival level; they are still very rare and inaccessible to the public. Any excess funds would be used to pursue the Foundation’s objectives of promoting freshwater education and sustainable development; this would include supporting educational visits to the property by students; establishing scholarships for students studying aspects of native freshwater ecosystems and resource management; and providing small grants for environmental and development organizations in Colorado. www.wheelerjobin.com /clients/callforthewild/colorado.asp   (587 words)

Archive Search -- WSJ Interactive Edition Opponents of a new $1 coin are led by Save the Greenback, an organization supported largely by paper and ink companies, the main beneficiaries of continued $1 bill production. In fact, Save the Greenback decided to support the Senate $1 coin proposal because it does not mandate the elimination of the $1 bill.

To coin or not to coin: chains, vendors debate dollar's fate Nation's Restaurant News - Find Articles   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08) Questions of savings are more muddled in the restaurant sector, where operators voice concerns that range from public acceptance to capital outlay for new coin mechanisms. "There would be costs to the private sector that aren't counted in estimated savings to the government," said Tim Hackler, spokesman for Save the Greenback, a coalition formed last year to promote the interests of unions that print paper currency and companies that manufacture paper and ink. Walgreens determined that use of a coin in place of the greenback would save the company $500,000 a year by speeding up transactions and reducing the number of coins employees must count at the end of shifts, Benfield said. www.findarticles.com /p/articles/mi_m3190/is_n18_v29/ai_16925436   (872 words)

10-21-97, Statement of James Benfield   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08) Savings in years one and two (FY97 and FY98) are zero because the Mint requires 30 months for planning and production of initial inventories. The savings to the government from a $1 coin come mainly from the fact that the government makes a significant profit on every coin that is put into circulation. These interest savings, in addition to savings from printing, paper and processing, should be counted when computing the savings to the government from issuing a new $1 coin. financialservices.house.gov /banking/102197jb.htm   (6720 words)

Last check: 2007-10-08) Beattie pointed out that the true benefits of recovery efforts for endangered species cannot be measured only in dollars and cents, because they have broad benefits for human health and the environment. Habitat saved for endangered species also benefits a wide variety of other fish and wildlife, including both game and nongame species, as well as clean water, outdoor recreation and other environmental values," Beattie said. For example, recovery of the northern spotted owl is provided for in the President's Forest Plan, which also offers benefits for salmon and a host of other species in the northwest forest ecosystem including the Pacific yew, source of the anti-cancer drug taxol. www.gsenet.org /library/23wld/specsave.php   (1057 words)

CoinBrowser.com :: United States Dollar The failure to simultaneously withdraw the dollar bill (the Save the Greenback Act of 1995 banned its phasing out) and weak publicity efforts have been cited by coin proponents as primary reasons for the failure of the dollar coin to gain popular support. Banknotes' nicknames are usually the same as their values (such as five, twenty, etc.); however, the $1 bill is often called a single, and the $100 bill has gotten the nickname benjamin (after the portrait of Benjamin Franklin that it bears). Greenback simply describes the traditional (remarkably invariable) design of banknotes issued by the United States Federal Reserve, and is not used for coins or dollars of other countries. www.coinbrowser.com /coins-usd.html   (2740 words)

Regional Review: Observations Replacement of the dollar bill could save the government an estimated $2.28 billion over five years. The savings stem from greater durability: Coins cost more, but circulate an estimated seventeen times longer than bills. The withdrawal of the bill thus seems necessary for a dollar coin to succeed, and for the government and vendors to reap the resulting benefits. www.bos.frb.org /economic/nerr/rr1997/fall/obsr97_4.htm   (784 words)

Save the Greenback Act - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The Save the Greenback Act was legislation proposed, but not passed, in the United States Congress in 1995 and 1997 forbidding the phase-out of the United States one-dollar bill. In a February 24, 1995 speech introducing the Save the Greenback Act, Rep. Thomas M.

All About Money - Print Version The generation of fiat money, which is produced without work—how much more work is involved in producing a $100 bill as opposed to a $1 dollar bill?—dilutes that which has been saved and that which has been promised for future payment. They are then able to act without the consent of the citizenry, which, if consulted, would probably allocate their savings differently. Because improving one’s lot requires the accumulation of wealth, and because it is not economic to save fiat currency, the poor tend to stay poor. www.gold-eagle.com /editorials_01/parks021701pv.html   (2384 words)

SO LONG GREENBACK? THE $1 BILL COULD BECOME THING OF THE PAST AS MOMENTUM BUILDS TO REPLACE IT WITH A COIN.   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08) They're eyeing millions in savings that could result from replacing $1 bills that wear out in 17 months with $1 dollar coins lasting 30 years. Another problem with the Anthony dollar was that the government continued printing dollar bills, which kept the coins from receiving the mass circulation they needed to gain acceptance. A rival lobbying group, Save The Greenback, says that just points to the lack of public support for the switch, which it said would encourage vending machine owners to raise prices, promote environmentally damaging strip mining of copper and increase many business' costs. scholar.lib.vt.edu /VA-news/VA-Pilot/issues/1995/vp950504/05040349.htm   (692 words)

Peter Cooper, Ideas for Good Government It is inexcusable, because the Government should issue the currency, as it does the greenback, and thus save an enormous bounty, taxed upon the non-bondholding masses, thus violating that equality and justice it is the duty of the Constitution to preserve. Had this been continued with the unfluctuating measure of all values, thousands of millions of dollars would have been saved to the American people, which have now been lost, giving us instead national demoralization as a recompense for the unconstitutional, invalidating financial laws, that have been passed. Congress should not adjourn, until it has established a Postal Savings Bank, by which the Government should receive on deposit the savings of the people at a low rate of interest, say two and a half per cent., or $3.65. www.heritech.com /yamaguchy/cooper/cooper_208.html   (8153 words)

Coin Coalition - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia According to Randy Chilton, manufacturers converted machines to accept the Dollar (United States coin) at great expense, but the unwillingness of the U.S. government to phase out the dollar bill prevented the coin from becoming popular[1].
