This is one of the more inspiring charities I have stumbled upon to date: Assisting Marsh Arab Refugees within the historic area known as Mesopotamia, part of the larger Fertile Crescent, having seen the earliest emergence of literate urban civilization for which reason it is often dubbed the "Cradle of Civilization". It and its people are now under threat of an endangered larger ecosystem, as reported in the NYTimes earlier this summer. Much of the Tigris-Euphrates is dry as a bone. But this organization is inspiring me to plot a giant movement within Emerging Terrain. Watch for more details to unfurl right here on Midpoint Meander. I think it will include a ton (literally) of Cor-Ten steel. Curious?
