Here ae links to 4 articles. The first 3 are by Van Jones, author of Eco-Apartheid first posted by Elan shapiro on Sustainable Tompkins, but also included again here; and the 4th is an interview with Saturday's keynote speaker, Shakoor Aljuwani. I intend to have a few copies of each article there but not alot of the first 3 as they are longer and I only make a number of copies if I can format an article onto one back to back sheet.
If you can't link to these email me privately and I can send as attachments or probably embedded.
