SIMPLE SOLUTIONS: THE TOWN-HALL PRESENTATION

We finally arrived in Tokyo and had an informative dinner with former Mayor of Shima City, Chihiro Takeuchi, and his daughter, Shiori (who went to high school in Canada and is now at Sophia University), Yayoi/Takeo Kondo (of Nihon University) and Masako Otsuka (International Ocean Institute). The dinner was arranged with amazing alacrity by Chisako Takeuchi, wife of Chihiro, a few hours before the event itself. The above photo captures the moment.

Over a period of five hours we discussed how best to cooperate on economic development in Shima City. As the pearl industry is declining, I have long been suggesting that the combination of deep ocean fluids and colored pearls is the solution. Chapter 4 of SIMPLE SOLUTIONS for Planet Earth provides details.

Next, my town hall presentation to Nokodai on SIMPLE SOLUTIONS.
