permaculture

[Guillermo <griromero@yahoo.com>]

Check: http://kaslemmandala.wordpress.com/

Los Cimientos Alliance.  My contact person there is Ms. Francia Jackson.

It is not PC design as such, but they are doing good work re. environment and 
small scale ag.

Hope it helps.

BTW check also the work of Doug Mason, he was in the 90's, part of MayaQuest: 
an adventure in bikes trying to reunite school children (Mayan and USA) 
through the internet.
