We are very encouraged by the response generated by our call for
people to become members of G:NET. We have been receiving hundreds of responses by post
and email by those who wish to join us in a learning process of complex and seemingly
intractable issues of environment and development. In this issue of G:NET we explore a
natural disaster that is not as spectacular and dramatic in its manifestation like floods
or earthquakes but is far more damaging.

Why do
droughts occur? And how can we mitigate the effects? Like in most other environmental
problems, we all suffer from a drought of ideas.
Environment is one subject that cuts across most disciplines. The aim is not to burden
teachers with another subject but to enrich and facilitate a more effective teaching of
different subjects in the classroom. To achieve this we need your feedback. Do write and
tell us how useful you found the material, for yourself and with your students. Bouquets
and brickbats, both are welcome.
