Dear Friend,

Please consider visiting the following site. It is expected to give some inspiring news, or at least compel us to cast a critical look at what goes in the name of development.

http://www.independent.co.uk/opinion/commentators/johann-hari/johann-hari-a-fight-for-the-amazon-that-should-inspire-the-world-1715927.html

The part "The earth has no price. It cannot be bought, or sold or exchanged. It is very important that white people, black people and indigenous peoples fight together to save the life of the forest and the earth. If we don't fight together, what will our future be?" may remind us Chief Seattle's speech (http://www.synaptic.bc.ca/ejournal/wslibrry.htm)

With regards,
S. Purkayastha.
