Earth from outer space

Earth Day is Sunday.  I love Earth Day – it kind of reminds me of Woodstock and that was the ultimate in Debauchery!  No, but really, Earth Day is a great way to remember that we have this one earth to work with, so here are 5 reasons I love (and support) Earth Day:

1) I am from the Earth.  Sounds kind of corny, but if the Earth was all contaminated, I wouldn’t taste as good as I do.  Without going into it all, my flavors rely on the soil I’m grown in and the climate my vines exist within.  You wouldn’t want to change that, would you?

2) I live in a glass house.  So I don’t throw stones.  :)  Did you know that recycled glass reduces air pollution by 20%? If you don’t recycle me, it’ll take a million years for me to decompose.  Wow!  I make one heck of a flower stem vase!

3) Every ton of glass recycled saves the 9 gallons of fuel it takes to make a new piece of glass.

4) Reduce, Reuse, Recycle. If you don’t finish me at dinnertime, you can use me to cook with tomorrow night!

5) Earth Day brings people together. I bring people together.  Enough said!
