Even more reason to be green

Back in December, Live Earth asked readers to post comments on their green holidays. I was perusing these responses when I stumbled upon this jewel of an answer:

"The most effective way to go green is to stop buying newly manufactured products, stop buying anything made in China, stop spending your money at big box stores which usually trash the environment and basic workers rights.

Instead, give a service (massage, car wash, child care, yard work, tech support, catered meal, etc.), a hand-made gift by you, or a local craftsperson, something recycled and refurbished. Resolve to only purchase locally made food, products," posted by Kayla.

What an intensely powerful statement. A statement that really sums up all of the important issues of today.
