Happy New Year(2010:), Happy New Decade!

As a former emotional overeater / binger I must remember:

'Remember that it takes about three days for food to be converted into adipose fat, so as long as you cut back a bit the next day, nothing bad will happen.'

Love Food, Hate Waste!

By Francesca Angelina(ES today:)

A free feast made from six tonnes of misshapen fruit and veg that would otherwise have been thrown out will be offered to 5,000 people in Trafalgar Square.

Curry and smoothies will be served at Feeding The 5,000 on Wednesday from nnoon to 14:00, to highlight food waste. Farms, packers and markets have given fresh produce to the event, organised by author, Tristram Stuart with Save the Children, ActionAid, This is Rubbish and Fairshare. Chefs including Masterchef winner, Thomasina Miers will give lessons in using leftovers.

Rosie Boycott, chairwoman of the London Food Board, said: 'It will bring to life the idea that every morsel is too good to waste.' Britain Wastes £12billion of foods and drink a year. Up to 40% of farmer's crops are rejected for cosmetic reasons.

See you there!

oops(correction)!

47% of Britons do not feel that Global warming and climate change is man-made.

Appoligies!

Age of Stupid(Being mindful:)!


I am aghast at the shocking statistical fact that 47% of Britons feel that destructive human behaviour is not a contributor to man-made environmental degradation. In the wealthy nations, such as the U.K.; people exploit natural resources on a huge scale and a huge cost to the planet / natural world and people with the lowest carbon footprint. Individuals are driven by status, big profits and a insatiable greed for speeding for the sake of it. This has got to stop now if we have any chance of conserving life here on Earth. We, the human have to live consciously and mindfully(think as if you are securing your children and your grand children's future:) and 'be the change we wish to see in the world' aka setting an example!
