Over the summer, a delegation of 18 California policymakers traveled to Israel to explore issues related to climate change, water use and smart agriculture. Their travels included a tour of a water management facility in Jerusalem, plant breeding company Kaiima Ltdin Moshav Sharon (listed by MIT as one of its top-50 smartest companies.) a visit to a nursery near Gaza, a trip to Netafim, an Israeli Ag technology company in the Negev Desert, and a visit to the Ben Gurion University Desert Research Institute. They meet with agricultural innovation, climate change and water use experts across Israel

and mean while as California and Israel are trying to save the damn planet what are the palis along with the other arab backed interests at the United Nazis (UN for short) up to now? oh yeah they're trying to claim the heritage of The Dead Sea scrolls as their own. next thing you know they'll be trying to put a minaret on top of Seattle's space needle and claim it's a muslim holy site.
