Post by bmartin » Thu Feb 16, 2012 3:50 pm

A Clinton School lecture / book signing that I thought may be of interest to some in this group. I'm not affiliated with the author or the Clinton School - Just passing along info. One of these days I'm going to go to one these talks! The Clinton School often brings in impressive people.

Award-winning journalist Cynthia Barnett will discuss her book, "Blue Revolution: Unmaking America’s Water Crisis," which describes an illusion of water abundance in America that has encouraged everyone, from homeowners to farmers to utilities, to use more and more. She proposes the most important part of the solution is also the simplest and least expensive – a shared water ethic among citizens, government and major water users.

This should be a great program. Cynthia has written some great things and we are lucky to have her here.
