Since then, aluminum has been accustomed manufacture several things like aluminum cans, gutters, tin foil, and lots of alternative things.

To My Beautiful Daughter. Top Story - May 2021.
Sometimes when I miss you, I imagine what you would be doing right now. You would be away at university right now. I imagine you would be happy, you'd have a lot of friends, and I know you'd be doing great. After all, you inherited your grandmother's brains.

SAVING OUR OCEANS: EDUCATION & CONSERVATION.
Introduction. Beautiful and majestic, beaches have long since been the beacon of hope for castaways, prisoners of war, and the seasick; and, its oceans have served as the settings for epic battles, mythological tales, folklore, and stories of a particular pirate or a pirate’s journey, as well as historical events that took place long ago, like the Voyage of Christopher Columbus to the New World and the Transatlantic Slave Trade. They also serve as a home for the many creatures living in it, like the shark, the dolphin, the whale, and even the crab; and because, the oceans serve as a medium for both man, animal, amphibian, and porifera, we as global citizens must do our part to keep our carbon blueprint down in order to preserve the very nature and purpose of our grand natural waterways for generations to come.

Think like an Alaskan
I grew up in California, spent my adult life traveling from one place to another, and then settled in Alaska. In my travels, I have learned a few tricks of the trade of reducing your carbon footprint. Not by non-profits with amazing commercials that leave me crying into my coffee cup. Or the monthly mail call where I am nicely asked to donate to various organizations that are saving whales, pandas, wolves, bears, or the honeybee. Or the organizations requesting a $50.00 tax-deductible donation so that volunteers can clean beaches, mountains, rivers, valleys, and deserts. I love all these organizations! I have gone hungry trying to support all the big-hearted and tireless organizations trying to save this planet.

On a Biodiversity Note. Top Story - May 2021.
Intro It's funny how powerful words can be when the world is out of tune. I clear my voice to tell you how words have penetrated my mind, and they have made me rethink choices, make changes, and become an advocate for healthy living. Now...how I came about these texts is merely coincidental.

There is no 2.0 Earth!
Reduce, Reuse and Save Money! Everyone knows about reducing their single use plastic items, just like they know to wash and reuse them if they are still in good condition. This is especially true for plastic bags from stores and plastic silverware. I usually reuse my grocery bags as thrash can bags if there is no hole in the bottom. The holes for the opening and the handles don’t count!

The Body Connection
I didn’t start off my life being a good steward towards the earth. My family did I suppose, the bare minimum, in part due to the education on recycling we received in elementary school. We had our own garden in the summer, more out of the traditional habits of the offspring of generational farmers, than out of a desire to deepen our connection to the earth and, not littering was just basic manners.
