This Central Kootenay village is the seventh community in the province to earn coveted Bear Smart status, thanks to its collaborative efforts to reduce human-bear conflicts. Surrounded by a creek and forested trails, with easy access to fruit trees, wild berries, clover patches and household garbage, this tiny village along the shores of Slocan Lake is an enticing place for black bears.

With increased globalization and a smaller world, money flows more easily and the flows have increased. Where aid once represented a majority of the funds from high income countries to developing countries, this has now been surpassed by investments and worker’s remittances, and these flows show no sign of slowing down – maybe pausing for an occasional downturn in the global economy. The question is when this will start show as a significant decrease in poverty.

TWA’s President Kirti Dolkar Lhamo and Research & Media Officer Tenzin Dhardon Sharling participated in December 2009′s COP15 summit in Copenhagen. TWA’s representatives worked as a Tibet 3rd Pole group which is the Campaign Working Group under the ITN along with Environment & Development Desk (EDD) of the Central Tibetan Administration (CTA) and Environment Desk of Dharamsala. The campaign centred on the plight of Tibet’s nomads, who are being dispossessed of Tibet’s grasslands, and called for urgent action to return stewardship of the fragile plateau under the grave threat from Climate change to those who have lived in a sustainable way and in harmony with the natural environment for generations. COP15 was a landmark for the group in taking Tibet’s environmental issues at such level. The team reached a significant number of delegates and negotiators, conducted numerous media interviews and held several well-attended public events. This conference has brought a lot of international and Tibetan media attention which was aired in Tibet as well.
With the milestone created by the Tibet 3rd Pole group at COP15 in Copenhagen, we hope to take this campaign further at the upcoming 17th Conference of Parties (COP17) at Durban. View further details on COP17 on our website.
Nothing like a bit of healthy competition, is there? Not to be outdone by the likes of Amina (smug little cow!), I have brought my own interpretation to the "Aqva" theme.

The mohawk which I recommend for this outfit is called "Thunderdrome". For me it is the mohawk amongst mohawks in SL. And you will need to put it on before you know all the reasons. It has been created by none other than the amazing Ms. Helena Stringer. Not only amazing for talent but also for generosity: She is giving away this beauty as a dollarbie texture tester at her store at Lyashko:

A garden is a grand teacher. It teaches patience and careful watchfulness, it teaches industry and thrift,above all it teaches entire trust.
The love of gardening is a seed once sown that never dies.
