These challenges include, among many others: ending hunger, promoting rural economic development, protecting the safety of the food supply, reversing the obesity and diabetes epidemics, and averting catastrophic climate change.
Addressing any and all of these challenges requires the development of healthy, sustainable, and equitable food systems.” The Food Law Society seeks to foster on-campus dialogue on numerous issues in law, policy, science and management that confront professionals in the fields of food law and food policy.

Shaping Debate, Building Networks, Making a Difference The American Constitution Society (ACS) believes that law should be a force to improve the lives of all people. ACS works for positive change by shaping debate on vitally important legal and constitutional issues through development and promotion of high-impact ideas to opinion leaders and the media; by building networks of lawyers, law students, judges and policymakers dedicated to those ideas; and by countering the activist conservative legal movement that has sought to erode our enduring constitutional values.
By bringing together powerful, relevant ideas and passionate, talented people, ACS makes a difference in the constitutional, legal and public policy debates that shape our democracy. Shaping Debate. The American Constitution Society brings together many of the country’s best legal minds to articulate a progressive vision of our Constitution and laws. Building Networks. Making a Difference.

(if you are interested in my professional work, try here) I am trying to keep you alive. There are lots of threats which governments are either ignoring or causing. Nuclear war, bioweapons, even plain old conflict are driven by resource scarcity. A likely response to increasing resource scarcity (manifest as economic problems and rising prices) is centralization of power (fascism). Finding better solutions than centralization and war is my life’s work. To this end I’ve worked extensively with government, the military, some large companies and think-tanks – but most of all with the Free and open source community – to solve real problems.
