    Earth Day

    Just curious if anyone here does anything special on Earth Day?

    you know things like walking to work or commuting, using less waste, strangle a politician, clean up a river/beach, feed some baby birds in an abandoned nest by regurtitating partially digested worms into their mouths, hang out with some hippies, plant some trees...

    things like that.

    ill probably walk to work just for the heck of it.
    For whoso comes amongst many shall one day find that no one man is by so far the mightiest of all.

    I flipped our compost on Sunday

    I've been trying to compost a recyclable plastic cup and fork. Both are those corn starch things. Neither has decomposed at all and it's been over a year in the compost.

    I'm eager to try composting one of those new Sun Chip bags.

    Im going to shoot and eat a snail darter, then for the evenings festivities Im going to burn a pile of tires while running my air conditioning full blast. Earth Day what a stupid event, interesting though it was founded to combat GLOBAL COOLING, gibbering idiots.

    My my, aren't we ornery?

    I'm pretty green in general so Earth Day is ongoing for me. Perhaps it's a Buddhist thing, but I don't really celebrate it as distinct. I'm always torn this time of year about what to celebrate. Earth Day is so close to World Tai Chi Day. This year, I think I'm going to celebrate the Cherry Blossom Festival.

    to think that mankind, as a species, can ultimately destroy the ecosystem of the planet is asinine... mother nature has an uncanny knack for putting things into their proper place - we as a general body, have been duped into thinking that our planet is somehow inferiour to it's inhabitants... LOL... i hope you all have some popcorn on hand - the show has already begun. *munch* *munch*

    The idea is not that we can completely eradicate all life, just that we could make the world unable to support human life.
