Interview with Amit Goswami - Part 1

Global regeneration - beyond sustainability


January 2008

From the Editor

This is a story about creating reality and letting go.

Three years ago in a business meeting at What the Bleep, Betsy Chasse casually said, "I want to start a newsletter." There was a little contemplative silence, and then everybody in the room turned around and looked at me.

I'd just walked in the door with pizza for the meeting, and had only recently come on-board as a part-time, short-term office manager. It was a local job I never would have taken in a million years had I not been a 50 year-old full-time graduate student in need of a little something extra to help defray the costs of a mortgage and dog food.

WILLOW, NY - No one forgets the face of famine. For many people, the images of starvation and death that poured out of Ethiopia on the newswires during the 1980s will be forever carved in their minds.

Nearly 1 million people starved to death or perished from hunger-related diseases during that time of terrible drought and famine. The Valley of Antsokia in Ethiopia was a dustbowl filled with men, women and children waiting to die when Dr. John McMillin arrived in 1984 as a World Vision relief director. He set to work, not only distributing food, but starting a regenerative agricultural program that would restore the fertility of the valley’s soils and develop healthy farms and crop distribution systems that would ensure that such a disaster never happened again.
