Mind the Gap

Go watch Hans Kessler presenting his mind-blowing data visualization of world health, economy, and myth debunking at TED 2006. Using the nonprofit GapMinder Foundation site's tools and database access, it should be possible to create similar correlations between results of conservation efforts like acquisition of permanent easement land by conservation trusts, annual bird and wildlife counts, water and wetlands analysis, and localized life expectancy, cancer, and economic data. I want to see this. If it correlates the way I *hope* it will, it could be an extremely powerful tool for conservation, right-sizing, and healthy sustainability. If you get to it before I do (likely!), can you please comment here or email me? Many thanks!
