Great article. We've also been in touch with folks Chenoa kno= ws from when she worked there in 2004-05.

A couple of people have enqui= red about the flood situation in Kerala
This article has been written and published by my cousin's son Vivek Geo= rge who lives and works in Kochi, Kerala. Personally, I think that the task of rehabilitation is a grassroots task that= is likely to take 30 to 40-years if we treat Mother Earth kindly and work c= ollaboratively. I share this because we have a great deal to learn about tragedies and how we= can work together to address the immediate issues and work on long-term solu= tions. It is the task of cultural re-orientation and recreating paradigms tha= t demonstrate our interdependence. May we have the grace to listen carefully, learn well and work collaborativel= y for our common well being, Mary Kerala just witnes= sed the worst flood in a century. It has damaged thousands of homes and displ= aced hundreds of people. Now as water recedes, this flood has made us think a= nd realize that we have not lost everything. Please read through this article= which details 10 positive takeaways from this calamity. The link to the arti= cle is also given below
