Hi everyone,
Just a quick announcement – Alex has been chosen as a TED Senior Fellow! Out of the 65 TED Fellows who spoke at TED conferences this past summer, 20 were chosen to be Senior Fellows.
“This group is especially important to us, as they pioneered the Fellows program,” said Tom Rielly, TED Fellows Director. “We look forward to helping them grow as leaders, and to assisting them to further their important work.”
Alex is extremely excited to continue his association with this elite international organization of innovators. If you’re in the area, please feel free to come see him tonight at the Curtis Memorial Library in Brunswick at 7pm. He’ll be talking about community sustainability and post-petroleum as we head further into the 21st century – and I’m sure he’ll answer questions about TED too!
Cheers,
Laura
I wonder how this could be applied here in India. In the cities we are just eating garbage in the name of food products. all kinds of food products are altered with chemicals to obtain economic advantage by the food processing companies. hence this is a real solution to these woes.
A self sufficient country in terms of food production in the past, India is now exporting food items to other countries to fill its big belly thanks to the industry friendly policies of government.
kudos your team for the unprecedented success.

Congratulations, Alex, on your selection as a Senior Fellow by TED. Your project is very important not only to the people you affect directly, but as an example to communities in developing nations around the world.
