AFTER THE MELTDOWN: Economic Redesign for the 21st Century by David Korten"The task before us is to replace the culture and institutions of a twentieth-century economy designed and managed to serve financial values with the culture and institutions of a new twenty-first-century economy designed to serve life values. The former undoubtedly leads to environmental, social, and economic collapse. The latter holds promise of leading to the world most humans really want for themselves and their children-a world of healthy, happy children, families, and communities living together in peace in vibrant, healthy, natural environments. It is ours to choose." 
 

British Columbia Breeding Bird Atlas: The first year results of the BC Breeding Bird Atlas are visible online as a series of maps. This data base is being compiled by birders all across BC and is going to be an invaluable conservation tool. Everyone can participate, as even casual breeding records are very important.
