This Thanksgiving weekend when you gather with family and friends it is important to remember the harvest and where it comes from. If everyone composted their food scraps, refused to use one-time-use disposables, and recycled to the maximum they would truly be feeding the land and not the landfill.
I first came across this slogan as part of the Ottawa Green Bin program and have adopted it as my own for the benefit of the earth. (Is this copyright infringement - or is it part of the Commons to be used by anyone? I guess we'll find out.)
With our Tofurkey and sweet acorn squash ready for cooking, the leaves falling in a blaze of colours, and the pumpkin pie about to be assembled, we truly feel blessed and give Thanks for family and friends and such a bountiful and safe country to live in. Now that Barack Obama has received the Noble Peace Prize perhaps others will experience the peace and prosperity that we so often take for granted.
Happy Thanksgiving
