Idea List: emerging

Folks onboard the Kiri have had some good ideas for the trip. Here are a few:

  1. To illustrate how a boat can be a microcosm of a sustainable farm, have onboard composting and a small container, garden for fresh veggies and herbs.
  2. Recycling program setups for removing plastic bottles and other trash from shorelines. Organized thru schools, sponsored by soda manufacturers, recycling funds go towards schools.
  3. Solar panels on board - chart output - show kids (+parents) what it can do (exposed and then covered?)
  4. Get a camera (or cameras) for kids to take photos!
  5. Check with Prescott college for Baja info. Prescott has a research station on the Gulf Side. Could be a good educational contact. What do you think? We will compile the best ideas, and then put it up for a vote - we will try to incorporate the winners in our trip.

Feel free to comment on the ideas and suggest your own.
