      The world’s media only reports what they believe to be negative stories about Israel.  Here on Walter’s World you learn how that same world benefits from Israel’s technological advance.
       
      Much of the water that now flows from our taps is desalinated from the Mediterranean Sea.  When in 2015 you will turn on your water taps in Israel, 75% of all water will come from desalination plants and already today, 80% of water used in agriculture is recycled waste water.  
      Hear this amazing story.
       
      Also, a Star interview with the versatile Theodore Bikel and some of his music.
