For those of you in the vicinity,
please note that Jim Thomas, of the ETC Group, will be presenting on
"Nanotechnology and Justice: The Implications of Converging Technologies for the
Poor, Marginalized, and Dispossessed,' this Thursday on the Michigan State
University Campus in East Lansing, MI. Please see attached flyer for more
info.
We may not think of nanotech as a
'Great Lakes' issue per se, but the potential environmental and health aspects
of nanoengineered particles -- particularly those used in food and agricultural
processes -- are of significant concern among regulatory agencies, private
industry, and the NGO community. Stay tuned...
Cheers,
jvs
