“Speakers at the conference
included the Environmental Alliance
for Senior Involvement group from
Virginia, who talked about and
explored senior citizens’ roles in
Mexico and the U.S. in sustaining
communities,” Ingman said.
“Another great speaker was Bill
Benson, former assistant secretary of
aging from Washington who also
spoke about getting seniors involved
in their communities.”
and getting sucked dry by a pipe.”
Ingman said the conference over-
all was thought to be a great success.
“I was amazed at how engaged
the participants were in the topic of
sustainable development and how
they stayed to the bitter end,” Ing-
man said.
“They see it as a much more
pressing issue than we see it in the
States.”
Ingman said he asked the group at
the end of the conference if they
were optimistic or pessimistic about
the future.
“The vast majority said they were
optimistic about the future, which
made me more optimistic than when
I first came into the conference,
especially after talking with the
group,” Ingman said.
