Waste reduction week in Canada is October 16-22.

Environmental Information Network - http://www.owe.org/
This is the Ontario waste materials exchange website, which helps in the reusing and reducing of industrial by-product materials.

http://www.prrrdy.com/ - for info on reducing, reusing, recycling.. and info on composting, natural gardening, household hazardous waste, materials exchange program etc.

Activism is the way we pay for being on this planet” ~ loosely translated, telephone wire quote from Alice Walker.
Alice Walker is an author, best known for writing The Color Purple, and an activist in environmental, feminist/womanist causes, and issues of economic justice.

NOW is not the time to be complacent.. it is time to be active.

One of my favorite activist sites – http://www.voiceyourself.com/

Woody Harrelson’s Voice Yourself - great ideas for healing and helping Mother Earth in this website. & if you haven’t seen his poem – Thoughts from within.. go there first!

Have an active and eventful day!
