Happy Earth Day, again...

'Go Green!'

What have we learned, if anything? Are things any better for our planet and inevitably us who live on it?! Saw a documentary about this topic called 'Earth Days' on PBS. We have surprisingly been celebrating Earth day now for 40 years! I didn't know this. at first it started as a grassroots hippie phenomenon with the largest demonstration in NYC whcih brought thousands of interested people in 1970. With the Republican administrations things went south fast after Carter, for our planet whcih is not surprising as republicans have had a long history of bineg disinterested in our environment.

What are your thoughts? What will you do Thursday in honor of Earth Day? Last year I taught a class at the library and I attended a Green fair in Rhinebeck. I make beer bottle cap jewelry as you know and usually do a class. I ran a class at the nursing home in New Rochelle, Ny. My mom is currently in which is why have been scarce here, sorry. She has not been doing well. Prayers Welcomed and again, "Happy Earth Day All!". :) -Ann

More and more people are going Green and are showing their concern for the planet and their wallets by buying products made from recycled materials such as what I do with beer bottle caps. I make earrings out of them. Others are joining this trend. You can read more on this in this article.

Yeh! My page rank went up to 3! Finally.

'Go Green!'

Now I need my other blogs to go up as well! My Alexa rank has gone down though as I rarely drop on entrecard anyomore as I have better things to do. In my opinion, I shouldn't have to influence people to read or visit my blog. If they like it they will come. All I need to do is make a nice page that is user freindly and make sure it is well advertised so people hear of it and then the fact it is interesting to others as well as my self and useful and fun will be enough.
