You and I are on the same page. While I'm constantly bombarded with well-meaning family and friends telling me that I "have to buy a gas-powered lawn mower," this is what I tell them: "While I am the steward of my little piece of this planet, I'm going to do it right. I might not be able to stop pollution and global warming single-handedly, but I won't contribute to it - not on my watch!" (I use a reel mower, by the way. Yes, it's harder. But I get exercise, it doesn't pollute, it's better for the grass and it's quiet!) I've gotten one or two neighbors to come around to this way of thinking, but we have a long way to go to rid the planet of the thought-process that says it's easier to hire a lawn service, without even asking about what kinds of products they use. (to say nothing of whether or not their workers are legal. And before anyone slams me for being anti-immigrant, a woman just a few miles away was murdered in her own home in broad daylight by an illegal lawn service worker.)

Let all we idealists stand up and proudly do right by Mother Earth!
