He gives us some real things to think about when it comes to the availability of fresh water. Enjoy!

They are in the Nigeria well folder in teh photos section. They were given to me by someone at church who lived in Nigeria for 27 years. The lady who gave them to me actually met her husband in Nigeria, while he was building one of the wells! The first three were taken in 1952 and the last 4 were taken in 1961. The first well is a dug well and the second well is a drilled well. Most wells are drilled now. Angela Post your free ad now! Yahoo!

Last evening I got a request from the BBC News Radio to do an interview for World Environment Day. Little did I know that they would want to go live as soon as I called them back! The show that contacted the AWF is called "Up All Night" and the host is Richard Dallyn. We are trying to find out if they can send us an audio file that we put up on our site. We will keep you posted. Basically, they wanted to know the following: AWF's mission How bad the problem in Africa is Why the West is ignoring the problem Where are the wells we fund being built How closely do we work with the governments of Africa After the interview, the assistant told me that I did a good job and that I was a real sport for doing the interview without any notice and that they would remember that for the future. Hopefully, that means they will come to us more often when they want info about the crisis in Africa. :-> Elizabeth 2909From: Jo Sanchez <u2sangel2001@y...> Date: Thu Jun 5, 2003 8:51pm Subject: Re: BBC E-mail: World's water supply 'running low' --- In u2sangel2001@yahoogroups.com, beeche@w... wrote: > Speaking of the BBC News... > > Last evening I got a request from the BBC News Radio to do an interview for > World Environment Day.
