Connecting People to Weave a Better World
It is with great sadness that we report the death of Steve Habib Rose. A number of us met this evening and thought that this group would be a fitting tribute. Lets use this group to recognize, honor and appreciate the many gifts and blessings he bestowed on so many of us. Please add yourself and your reflections.

A diary on water shortage and potential water wars with incredible PDF downloads...
The World Economic Forum (WEF) issued a report (pdf file) warning that in less than 20 years the world may face a water bankruptcy of fresh water shortages
so huge and pervasive that "global food production could crater" as
the world could "lose the equivalent of the entire grain production of
the US and India combined." The report warns
that half of our global population will be affected by water shortages,
millions will die, and water wars will increase over shrinking
supplies. The gravity of the water crisis is exacerbated by the
interrelationship between water and economic growth, political
stability, health, food, alternative energy, climate change, human
rights and life itself.
