Fwd: [starsusaorg] RE: Thank-you!!!! College Open House was a success!!!



The GIS systems must include all the ecological, economic, environmental and educational "sources and sinks," and a defined method for developing combinations and concentrating these combinations.

Hi
This is going to sound weird!

But imagine for a second everything is perfect!
You got EVERYTHING!

Support, credit, promotion, respect. . . EVERYTHING!!

Why?
Because this was all designed, when tine began!
Sustainability is about changing everything!
Just let go and dream a second:

GIS and Agent-Based Modeling

GIS and Agent-Based Modeling

AAG and Twitter

After spending a rather enjoyable few days at the Association of American Geographers (AAG) annual meeting in Tampa where there were some great talks on agent-based modelingGIS and many other topics which I find interesting, along with catching up with some old friends and meeting new ones, its now time to head back up North. 

However, before jumping on the plane, I thought it would be intersing to look at the twitter traffic of the event (especially how there so many talks on using social media for geographical research). That being said, before showing the Twitter networks associated with the conference, one issue that was common among the conversion outside of the sessions was the lack of wifi access at the conference which accounts for small numbers of tweets durring the events but also one could argue people were more interested in the talks than that of tweeting. With that being said, within this analysis we show below we collected data using the #aag2014 and the @theAAG to explore the Twitter conversation.

The image below shows the # hashtag network from the conference with the biggest cluster being #aag2014 and associated words (click here to see a high solution image)

IFOAM launches Food Security Campaign | IFOAM

IFOAM launches Food Security Campaign | IFOAM: Industrial agriculture is a root cause of lack of food availability due to its reliance on foreign aid, external agricultural inputs and food imports that require a cash economy. Industrial agriculture is not about feeding the world but maximizing profits by producing commodities for whichever global market pays the most. This is the reason why one billion people in the developing world are chronically hungry and why over a billion people in developed countries are obese and suffering diet related diseases. Both are preventable. This is why IFOAM's 'People before Commodities' campaign has been launched at the United Nations World Food Security meeting in Rome to help put the needs of people back at the centre of our food and farming systems and policies.



Wow, I couldn't have said it Better myself...
Thanks Lord Jesus Christ. Amen. e;-)
