Dear Earthwatcher,

We very much hope you enjoy this, the latest installment of eNews. It's packed with stories from the field, about our research, expeditions and events.

Be sure to read about a recent discovery by Earthwatch scientists which could offer improved access to safe drinking water and therefore reduced incidences of water-borne diseases in remote regions of Kenya like the Samburu.

Finally, those of you in the New York City area will want to keep an eye out for "Earthwatch 24: An evening of science around the world," on April 13. More details to come in next month's eNews!

Warm regards,

Ed Wilson,
President and CEO
