Surf’s up in Solomons

by Luigi on October 27, 2007

My friend Tony Jansen and his friend Jon put together this fun video on the Solomon Islands. It’s ostensibly about surfing, but there’s stuff in there about agricultural biodiversity too. I met Tony when he was working at Kastom Gaden Association, a great local NGO working on sustainable agriculture and nutrition issues. We worked together on the livelihoods assessment of the Weather Coast of Guadalcanal.

Nice. Cool tunes. What’s with the blond hair? Introgression or malnutrition or neither?

They have the genes for it. There’s a paper on the genetics somewhere, I’ll see if I can dig it up.
