African program to benefit refugees and future generations

Toward a more Positive Universe

AFRICAN PROGRAM ENLISTS REFUGEES FOR REFORESTATION

Meaningful work to serve many people and the earth.  This one is from the UN which, albiet inconsistent, we must ask, what would we do without it?

Many folk, groups, committees who work with and from the UN are working conscientiously, consciously, round-the-clock –with all kinds of creative & spiritual reserve.

(27 may 2007) The world’s 30 million or so displaced people often have little choice but to cut and collect wood for shelters,  lighting, cooking, and to make room for cultivating crops. In East Africa, refugees and their host communities will soon plant more than 2.6 million trees in and around their camps.
