Several faculty from the Arava Institute for Environmental Studies were in Boulder Colorado last month and gave an inspiring presentation. Several studies underway with cross-border cooperation between Jordan, Israel, and the Palestinian Authority. These included studies on water quantity (Dead Sea), water quality and air quality (particulates). Unfortunately, these just scratch the surface of what is needed.On the Hazon side (the other charity benefiting from my ride), our home congregation Bonai Shalom is teaming up with other Boulder congregations to start a CSA (food coop with a local farm). If all goes as planned, we will be swimming in a cornicopia of good produce next summer (mmm...).
It is NOT TOO LATE to sponsor me for the ride. Go to IsraelRide.com and search for my page.
