Help Save a Traditional Culture

The Tsilhgot'in ("Chilcotlin") tribe in Canada needs help in their
fight to prevent the construction of a massive open pit gold mine. The
mine would completely drain their traditional fishing grounds and ruin
the groundwater on which their survival depends. Click this link to

MAYA SEED ARK PROJECT

The Maya Seed Arks are social justice projects for food security. They are based on organic principles, as well as a practical health care solution to the dangers of genetically modified seeds and foods. Located in Maya communities in three countries, each Ark is a repository and genetic treasure trove of heirloom seeds of their region.
