    Hey James,

     

    I love what you're doing for the AP movement!  Please keep up the good work!  

     

    Also, I'm in the process of creating a project and non-profit to create a mobile green house out of a converted school bus, showcasing sustainable technologies and energy, permaculture, and healthy/organic food, including an aquaponics system, to educate the youth at their schools.  Someone said you had previously thought about this idea.  Is there any advice or input you have in relation to a mobile aquaponics system?  Thanks!

    Hi James: I am a new member and Sylvia suggested that I should contact you, as you may have an interest in aquaponics work in India. I am working with village-based communities, and would like to promote aquaponics as a means of providing food security and livelihoods for communities with scarce land and water resources.
