John Bielenberg just made a presentation about Buy a Meter, that lovely little Alabama project that we just can’t stop talking about. Water meters will be purchased as gifts for all the mainstage speakers at the conference, and they’ve produced t-shirts reading 425 that will be sold for $425 (the cost to bring clean water to the 25% of Hale County residents that don’t have access to it). Even if you’re not here, you can buy one, too.

Somewhat coincidentally, Pam Dorr, HERO’s angel-like director and M’s person on the ground for Buy a Meter, was interviewed about the project on the excellent KCRW radio show “Good Food” today at 11am (scroll down to see more information and links). You can also podcast the show or listen to the archive by clicking on that link.
