Hello! In August, we raised only £50 of the £300 monthly target, at https://gofund.me/004071f0
This money helps fund all the updates from infogeo...@gmail.com and @geoeng_info/@geoengineering1 twitter. I take no salary or stipend. While the generosity of contributing donors is gratefully received, the shortfall is now almost as much as my mortgage. Clearly, I won't be able to carry on providing this service to the same standard, without more support from list members. While I understand that readers have widely varying circumstances, please do support this fundraiser if you value the list updates, and want them to continue. You can donate here. https://gofund.me/004071f0 If you'd like to provide support by other means (whether time or money), please contact me directly. Similarly, if there are grants available, please let me know - a reliable grant would be the ideal way to fund this work, long term.
