    We also learn about a special project that is one of Baldocchi's favorites. Agua Viva Serves, a U.S. based non-profit organization, is dedicated to bringing fresh water to rural villages in Honduras, Central America. Baldocchi shares his reasons for helping.

    And what is the importance of educating the public, professionals, and everyone who is touched by engineering on a daily basis? We have the answer.
