Hey Kyla

Awesome blog!
I have a question/comment for you. I'm taking a DE course, Intro to Environmental Stewardship (which you may have taken too), and one of the books, Plan B 2.0 by Lester Brown, makes some connections between environmental conditions (drought, soil degradation, draining aquifers, etc) and poverty. Its easy to read about it and say, yeah.. that makes sense, but I'm interested in hearing (and pictures) of what you have seen, especially at the village level and personal accounts.

Thanks and keep up the good work!

hey Kyla,
like tony, i am very interested in environmental conditions in developing countries...anything notable that has shocked you, or humbled you...? i know it is the developed countries that are the biggest contributers to such thing as global warming and countries of the west use the most resources and we experience those issues daily here in canada, but anything that you have to say about environmental conditions where you are in rural africa?
thanks kyla, and keep on inspiring!
lots of love,
kim
