The Nile River was essential to ancient Egypt, flowing north from near the equator through Egypt to the Mediterranean Sea. It provided water, deposited fertile silt after regular flooding, and was used for transportation, enabling trade. The delta was the most fertile region where the Nile emptied into the sea, while the desert outside the floodplain was called the "Red Land". Farming involved irrigation canals and tools to spread water. Egyptians grew crops like wheat and flax and were the first to grind wheat into flour for bread.

A presentation prepared by A. Astatke, D. Peden, K. Sonder, W. Ayalneh, G. Tadesse, G.H. Kiwuwa, F. Ahmed, M. Abdel-Meguid, and T. Kumsa for the CPWF Workshop, Entebbe, 27 November to 1 December 2005.
COP15,Bullshitting 15 Years On Climate ChangeSandip Sen
For 15 Years our Governments collectively have been fooling us on climate change. Now that Cap and Trade savings are being actually monetised we see that it is inadequate to fund the clean energy needs of planet earth. We start this Climate Change Series not to criticize, for we are no activists, but to provide sustainable solutions for planet earth. Please support us. Let us try to find the way to do it right, the way to save resources and the planet earth.
At the conclusion of the 2011 Egypt WaterHackathon, software developers and water specialists presented their innovative ICT-based solutions to real-world problems of water access and sanitation. This presentation highlights one of these solutions.
