...billion people, half the world's population, live within a hundred miles of the sea. And at least 100 million of them occupy low-lying deltas that, like the Maldives, rise not much more than 3 ft. above sea level. "Whatever our fate tomorrow," Maldives President Gayoom is fond of remarking, "will be your fate the day after tomorrow...

CAP's annual gush will eventually furnish Arizona with some 1.5 million acre-feet of water (one acre-foot is the amount needed to inundate one acre to the level of a foot and is roughly the quantity used annually by a family of four).

After Large Groups, members can stick around for After-Fellowship Activities (AFAs). AFAs range from movie nights, to games of Capture the Flag on the T, to trips to dessert trips to Super 88, the Asian supermarket in Allston. And while some members of AACF and HRCF do drink, it’s not considered an important mode of socializing...
