"Let every individual and institution now think and act as a responsible trustee of Earth, seeking choices in ecology, economics and ethics that will provide a sustainable future, eliminate pollution, poverty and violence, awaken the wonder of life and foster peaceful progress in the human adventure."
- John McConnell, founder of International Earth Day

RIGHT NOW, and then again tomorrow and then again the next day and on it goes day after day,
1/2 OF THE WORLD lives on LESS THAN 2 DOLLARS each day.

Psalm 27:4
One thing I ask of the LORD, this is what I seek: that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to gaze upon the beauty of the LORD and to seek him in his temple.
Do all you can and don't worry about the odds against you. Wield the miracle of life's energy, never worrying whether we fail, concerned only that whether we fail or succeed we do so with all our might. That's all we need to know to feel certain that all our force of diligent effort is worth our while on Earth.
Carl Safina, Voyage of the Turtle

Celebrating ED here...went to the recycling center this morning - they just started taking plastics again! I didn't realize how much plastic we're using on a daily basis until I collected it in bags! Got to work on reducing that. Now I'm going out to plant some flowers while C nap! Happy Earth Day to you, too.

Oh my goodness, I forgot that this was today! I was so focused on my brother's birthday that I forgot to do an earth day activity with my kids! I guess it will need to wait until this weekend

I was at the post office and they had some awesome wall stickers that reminded me of you. I bet Tuks would love them.
