If you want some high school students to help with building, planting, cleaning up, growing stuff kind of projects email me ASAP.  I've got a bunch of them desperate to get their "community service" requirement done before Tuesday.   They need to put in at least 2 hours (which can include travel time) and it has to be related to the environment (as long at they can see the connection).

"There is one, and only one, solution, and we have almost no time to try it. We must turn all our resources to repairing the natural world,and train all our young people to help. They want to.
We need to give them this last chance to create forests, soils, clean waters, clean energies, secure communities,stable regions, and to know how to do it from hands-on experience"
"...the greatest change we need to make is from consumption to production, even if on a small scale, in our own gardens. If only 10% of us do this, there is enough for everyone.
Hence the futility of revolutionaries who have no gardens, who depend on the very system they attack, and who produce words and bullets, not food and shelter."
