I recently found a place to live...

think building blockI'm sharing a house with 4 other people, one of whom is a sister production worker whom I met on a job. The household is strictly VEGAN, and most of the folks here are involved in the Animal Rights movement. There's a really great dog and cat here.

My only problem with them is they cook a lot of food using "fake" dairy type ingredients. Like Cheesecake made with tofu cream cheese, or pasta sauce that's "creamy" from using, again Tofu or margarine as opposed to butter or cream.

I mean, how about some basic, normal, vegetarian food that doesn't purport to be non-vegetarian food?

How about green vegetables sauteed in olive oil over brown rice and NOTHING remotely dairy about them? Imagine if you knew a guy who was keeping Kosher, but who constantly ate fake, non-pork-based bacon. It would be alittle bit weird, wouldn't it?

Well, that's all I want to say about these folks. Anyway, it's only a minor tiff.

At least I've got my own room, with a door on it, as opposed to crashing on someone's couch in their living room. PEACE!

Seeking alternatives for developing autonomous regeneration of the environment? Tired of pollution causing damaging weather changes because of the choices we citizens make? The climate is our commons; it is the root of the world's communities. Deep thinking will be needed, depending on the dilemma facing Earth. Ecological and economic matters will suffer equally from our emission-based energies. Energy has lasting environmental impacts, something environmentalist groups have warned about for years. Environmentalists are not just people passing moral judgment, they are just keenly aware that resources are finite. Food, fossil fuels and the markets, are global as is their impact. How great it would be if we could green the earth and grow the economy? A cleaner environment contributes to better health, helping us begins by learning how industrial activities can merge into the ecologically sound lifestyle. There is no limit on what we can do if we keep in mind local impact of our production with the moral clarity of our obligation to protect Mother Nature. A new organic Participatory ecology is forming; we can no longer turn blind eyes to the actions of those who pollute. We can preserve future growth by recognizing the problems, establishing protocols, and setting benchmarks for recognizing pollution reduction. Instead of exploiting the earth's natural resources, we will rely on renewable resources to save our legacy. If this makes sense to you, and you're serious about finding a solution for earth restoring technological advances, we'd love to hear your thoughts. Share with us ideas, problems, experiences with new technologies and environmental trends about restoring nature's right to clean water and abundant wildlife.
