Happy Earth Day One and All... I remember where I was on April 22, 1970! It was a HUGE event. And everyone was excited about it. I was at Stephen Hempstead High School and it was a day of sit-ins (all ok'd and supported by the school!) and talks about how to take care of Good Ol' Mother Earth. It had been going to hell in a hand-cart up to that point without anyone giving a rat's butt and the organizers of this nationwide event weren't going to take it anymore.
Now we find ourselves in the situation where some government big wigs are once again turning a deaf ear and blind eye on our environment. However, now we have the EPA - which is here because of the culture of "HELL NO WE AREN'T GOING TO TAKE IT ANYMORE" that was prevalent in the 60s and 70s here in these United States.
So I would urge you all to continue to do your part...its the only Earth we have Peeps. Don't waste it.
And remember that Cotton, Wool, and Silk are all wonderfully natural resources that Mother Earth makes possible for knitters and crocheters to make into lovely handmade garments.
