Out of necessity, I grew up recycling. Cotton skirts became faded, they were cut up and made into curtains. Later, they became potholders. Some people will be able to take big steps to save our beautiful planet but we can all do something. Years ago, I began writing from home so now, my daily commute is about 18 inches to my spare bedroom-office. Local teens ask if they can buy my car because it never moves! And we've not forgotten the biggest thing we can do for our earth is VOTE BLUE!
Always good reminders of ways to love Our Mother.
The Overstory is a masterpiece. Powers has such a large vision. Thank you for your reminders about what we can do as individuals, every day.
Your Idaho backyard looks a lot like my rural hometown =)
I try to reuse plastic water bottles for workouts rather than dispose immediately
Happy Mother-Earth Day
I have a friend who always brings her own take out container to the restaurant. Problem solved!
Jan, your thoughts awaken us to new ways of knowing/thinking about Mother Earth. Some things/ways I’ve adapted are:
Do not use straws
Bring my own containers when I go out to eat to bring left-overs home
Do not buy water in plastic, rather carry a reusable water bottle
These are just a few but I find it stimulating to listen to the creative ideas you offered.
We have only one home that we all share and need to take care of it, —- earth! Appreciate your thoughts friend, pat
