Urgent Evoke

A crash course in changing the world.

I am an optimist. I am a firm believer in the 'long tail' of innovation. I see our Indian deserts and the associated arid lands as opportunity to explore for potential farming endeavors using radical innovations brought by the next generation of Israel's innovative and entrepreneurial firms

Making our deserts bloom is a central theme inspired by Israel's tryst with nature to create a oasis in the gulf region with hard work, imagination, conviction and working collaboratively in a manner to create in a sense what we can truly call radical innovation.
See http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SlvxWGUEr6c

So in 2020, I would love to have on my plate a combination of fresh veggies and fresh fruits grown in a sustainable organic manner in the 'Thar' desert of Rajasthan and the 'Rann of Kutch' in Gujarat - two arid regions that has already adopted the latest agricultural technologies and dry land farming techniques from close collaboration with Israel. See http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_w1igYxPM2M

Since I love eating non vegetarian food, I'd love to eat 'mutton' from dry land goat farming and fish farmed in the same deserts mentioned above once again adopting path breaking technologies which we have derived from Israel. See the Urban Fish Farm of Future

For more information on how Israel could help African states, it may be worth visiting the following links below:
I am hoping that we can create a breakthrough to make this happen. To wake up to fresh produce every day from an innovative farm in the middle of the desert paradise Rajasthan. This is surely going to be a radical innovation achievable when we can truly understand what it means to be touched by:

water | the source of life

The problem cannot be solved with the same level of consciousness that created it

+1 Courage for daring to dream of greening Indias deserts

Great vision. It will take hard work but I believe you are on track here. We will all need to learn and adapt to new conditions in the future. India has great potential to lead the way. +1 Spark

Surprisingly enough, raising livestock in the desert may be more efficient than raising crops, as goats and sheep can eat the leaves of plants that are much more resilient to desert condition.

Fourth of July on the Lake

This past weekend was the annual celebration at the lake house in Connecticut. It is amazing that the lake is still so clear and beautiful after all these years. The watershed association has done a wonderful job protecting these waters from the damaging effects of development.The wood grill was finally ready to cook on, so we didn't miss the propane tank fueled grill anymore. The food actually tasted fresher than in the past and was easy to keep fueled.Dad was very proud of the solar hybrid…See More

Stinging Nettle

In this blog post I will focus on a plant that is abundant in our nature, and which is immensely nutritious. It's of course the Stinging Nettle. Let's start with the chemical constituents of this plant:37 % Non-Nitrogen-Extracts19 - 29 % Ash9 - 21 % Fiber4 % Fat22 % ProteinOnce the leaves are drid, their protein content can reach an astounding 40 %, which is much higher than beef, which even under the best of circ**stances can never exceed 31 % protein. In addition the Stinging Nettle consists…See More

Future

FutureToday is 2020/1/1. It is just like yesterday. The war is still continuing. It has started since 2010. In 2010, that year was a horrible year. Almost every energy ran out. Every country’s governments were crushed down at the same time. There were riots everywhere. All of the big company’s bosses were killed xdeadx in the riots. Troops fought each other everywhere. Food was bought up xawayx at once. There were no more food supplies in any shops. The economy was all crushed down. All the…See More

public servants

The exchange works directly for state and public workers and servants. It gives them credit in exchange for the amount of public work they contribute to the community. The more constructive they are based off a base rate the more credit they recieve.
