Starting your own vegetable plants from seed makes a lot of sense for community gardeners. For the modest price of a seed packet, a community garden group can grow more than enough tomatoes or peppers for an average vacant lot-sized garden. That’s not all – you also have a potential educational benefit if you can get kids involved in the process, and you can grow choice varieties – especially heirlooms – rarely available in garden centers. You can also time your growing so you’ve got top quality seedlings ready to go at the best time for your particular gardens. To reap the rewards, though, you have to do things right. To thrive, our tiny crop, like all babies, needs tender loving care applied with common sense techniques. Doing it right doesn’t, by the way, require spending a wheelbarrowful of money. In the next issue of Community Greening, you’ll find a longer article with more detailed information on starting seeds. In the meantime, keep these three key points in mind: 1. T

As reported on the front page of the newspaper El Nuevo Diario in Mana# gua, Nicaragua, Lake Tiscapa has been revived thanks to the e$orts of local EM workers and EM Technology. Un# der a banner headline trumpeting the fact that %Lake Tiscapa Lives Again,& the article discusses how this lake, originally used as a site of aquatic events in the Central American Olympics 25 years ago, had, in the interim, become completely contami# nated.

SOLAR AIR CONDITIONING Solar air conditioning refers to any air conditioning (cooling) system that uses solar power. This can be done through passive solar, solar thermal energy conversion and photovoltaic conversion (sun to electricity). The U. S. Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007[1] created 2008 through 2012 funding for a new solar air conditioning research and development program, which should develop and demonstrate multiple new technology innovations and mass production economies of scale. Solar air conditioning will play an increasing role in zero energy and energy-plus buildings design.

Getting Your Youth Group Started with Eco‐Justice Ministry When Jesus said, “Suffer the little children to come unto me,” (Luke 18:16) he wasn’t just being kind and generous with his time. He went on to say, “Truly, I tell you, whoever does not receive the kingdom of God as a little child will never enter it. ” Young people have a precious wisdom and insight that become less accessible to us as we get older. This is part of why young people have an essential role to play in helping churches and families to take better care of God’s Creation. Moreover, these are the people who will inherit the Earth as we move on from it, and have the task of furthering the Kingdom. Your youth ministries for Eco‐Justice should reflect both the confidence and value of young people. It should give them a sense of their responsibility toward God’s Creation, and empower them to remake their world as a harmonious expression of divine love.

` The Trojan Horse of Genetically Modified Food Why are US funded food aid agencies putting pressure on African governments to accept Genetically Modified food? Teresa Anderson investigates. Up to 15 million people in six countries in Southern Africa are currently facing famine. Aid agencies desperately need assistance to source and deliver food. So why has the US donation of 500,000 tonnes of maize been rejected by Zambia, and only accepted with reluctance by the other nations? The answer lies in the possible effects that the US Genetically Modified (GM) grain could unleash on African agriculture, economies and health. And the increasing suspicion that US food donations are being used as a tool to force GM on to the African market. African nations have so far refused commercialization of GM crops, but could be forced to accept the inevitable if local stocks become contaminated with modified genes. When food shortages became imminent back in June, the World Food Programme (WFP) a
