Greenpeace location has "here"

The Earth Summit has "hall"
Montreal Protocol has "turn"

Not sure but I think the W & Y in wolves is lighter too

WEnCon also has a Google Earth file, but I haven't gotten a chance to look at it yet (still downloading GE).
http://wencon.freehostia.com/downloads/WENCON.zip

Also, it you look on their sitemap under Resources is with a subpage under Organizational Resistance Management that you need a password to enter.
http://wencon.freehostia.com/aru/index.html

By the looks of it, these really aren't very nice guys...
Quote:
Organizational Resistance Management
A discrete and professional anti-resistance unit is available to mollify insurgents and dissenters who lack the same belief you have in the worth of your project. All operations are conducted in a confidential manner with every effort made to sever any connected associations.

So I would guess ARU= anti-resistance unit?

you have to have google earth, then you can view it after downloading it (both the program & the KMZ file)

In the source of the www.bonsaibanzai.netfast.org copyright page. I found this:
Quote:
Message from Gaia Force's 2083 inter-temporal connection contact:

Since the hyperweb was bought by InternatioNET Governings in 2038, all knowledge and communication that was in any way threatening to corporate interests has been significantly restrained. Gaia Force was compelled to continue operations underground, but without digital web access, our capabilities are massively restricted. We require assistance from supporters in your time dimension to help in ways that are impossible for us. This website is one of our main channels of contact.

We have reason to believe that WENCON, a consortium of governments and businesses that are responsible for much future environmental degradation, also have access to future contacts. We believe they have an Anti-Resistance Unit that is monitoring Gaia Force's activities in this time. Access to this unit can be obtained from data encoded in WENCON's so-called "Environmental Success" files on the front page of their website. Our agent inside WENCON says that the code is "the name of a supporter and her last two words."

Unfortunately we have one further important task that you urgently need to complete.

One of our leading operatives, Bindu Copernica, has gone missing while
engaged in vital Gaia Force work. We fear for her saftey. All we have is
this file containing the details of her travelog. We believe this contains an encoded message from Bindu.

It is absolutely crucial that you decipher this code and immediately
send it to Bindu's brother, Salvador - scopernica at gmail dot com - who will know what to do next.

Woah! Great catch!
And I believe that the "message" she's left in her Travel Log are coordinates. However they seem to be jumbled.

What about reversed?

N 24 08 35.06
E 48 26 84.71

That comes up to somewhere in the Mid East (which we can't view on GE due to the war)

Or maybe we are over thinking & it is a letter in each write up? Going back to check that thought ETA: Gobbledy gook

Maybe the Desert Rose plant is a reference to Bindu Copernica? just a wild guess.

That's what I was thinking as well. And maybe Dogwood is WEnCon/the Anti-Resistence Unit
