I am also trying to be more aware of the impact of the choices I make and the little things I can do that make a cummulative difference. Thanks for giving me more to think about!Clarissa Mansfieldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15982051385939165447noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6363744171538137221.post-27717038839852363052010-03-23T23:43:57.695-07:002010-03-23T23:43:57.695-07:00It's hard trying to live up to you, little one...It's hard trying to live up to you, little one. You are being such a good steward of the earth and your body. After reading this last night I got up and turned off five lights (and you know how I love decorative lighting). Then today I turned down the heat when we left in the morning instead of letting it cycle off at the preset time and I rode to work with Pa. Funny, carpooling with him had never even occurred to me before. I felt like I was a kid again being dropped off at school (ha! I don't have to go to daycare first) with a kiss and my lunch & getting picked up at the end of the day with stories to tell on the ride home (which might doom future rides since you know how much Pa loves to listen to me chatter away - just as much as you love these long blog responses). Thanks for the education and the inspiration. Keep stretching my comfort zone.<br />Do give Rabbi some extra lovin' since the candle thing would be terrifying.

I thought it was full of facts and those kinda bore me. :) Like the omnivores dilemma, it had everything I wanted to read but it was pretty boring so I couldn't get through. <br />To everyone else, thanks for the support.<br />I'll post on how Earth Hour went later!Farmers Veggie Wifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09663092610370604796noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6363744171538137221.post-61752217127807591452010-03-21T19:49:36.995-07:002010-03-21T19:49:36.995-07:00Oh my dear Emmy - I just love your posts.
Reminds...Oh my dear Emmy - I just love your posts. <br />Reminds me of me and Michelle back in Ft Collins in the 70's. (Not that there's anything wrong with that!). It's like the recent commercial on TV about the "Save the Earth" t-shirts. Made me want one. But not a reproduction, of course, the original. But is finding one on eBay counterproductive? (Or counter E-friendly?). Michelle doesn't believe that my giant pile(s) of tree prunings are actually earth-friendly carbon sinks, whereas the neighbors BURNING thier piles (illegally, I might add..) is earth UN-friendly..<br />So stick to your guns, girl. Or maybe I better not use those two metaphors with you. Anyway, kudos to you. Nothing wrong with high aspirations.Gevanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10248447030560329062noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6363744171538137221.post-53278398526049168072010-03-21T17:16:55.715-07:002010-03-21T17:16:55.715-07:00Thumbs up to you.

You are awesome just for being so passionate about it. T will catch on as much as he can!<br /><br />Keep it up, I am inspired by you!Christinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14705918156583784960noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6363744171538137221.post-39224259676950439392010-03-21T15:43:11.031-07:002010-03-21T15:43:11.031-07:00I saw that book at the store and thought it looked...I saw that book at the store and thought it looked interesting. Have you read Barbara Kingsolver's - Animal, Vegetable, Miracle? It is an entertaining read about her family's quest to eat totally local for a year. Even the little things count!!Garden Street Zoo https://www.blogger.com/profile/02687554534064322516noreply@blogger.com
