Darfur: Landmark peace meeting being held

A landmark conference in Darfur aims at reconciling
the feuding factions of the main rebel group, the
Sudan Liberation Movement, in preparation for
next month's peace talks with the government.

An influential think tank had recently warned that
divisions among the Darfur rebels could derail efforts
by the African Union to bring peace after 32 months
of conflict.

An estimated 800 delegates were expected to attend
the meeting, along with 200 invited guests, including
observers from the United States, the European Union,
the United Nations, and the African Union as well as
Sudanese political leaders and intellectuals.

The article noted that 'up to 300,000 people have died
in Darfur since the ethnic minority rebels launched their
uprising in early 2003'.

PNN view's these peace talks as very positive development
in resolving this terrible situation.

The 'Organic Products and Foreign Trade' seminar in
São Paulo, Brazil, showcased the economic reality that,
in addition to Europe, the US, and Japan, other regions
of the world are waking up to the value of eating foods
without pesticides.

The organic products market has an annual turnover
of US $25 billion worldwide. Mr. Positive views these
developments in agriculture as very healthy for both
our people and the planet.

I'm confident that less chemicals in the human body
