Only when the last tree has died

Came across this Cree saying recently having seen it many years ago and it still stopped me in my tracks:

Only when the last tree has died, the last river has been poisoned and the last fish has been caught will we realize that we cannot eat money.

Incredibly profound.

My Spring 08 favourites: Kitchen

To continue the Spring 08 favourites series here are my top three picks for the kitchen:

Fairtrade certified cotton tea towels from Sarah Smith
Kitchen caddies for organic waste to collect your compostables in
Recycled plastic food can crusher to save space when storing cans for recycling

The tea towels make me smile every time I see them :)

Cheers

Want a £50 voucher?

  • Each month the author of the best comment (should there be one) will receive a £50 Natural Collection voucher. So get commenting folks. We will choose as we see fit of course but we really do want to give a voucher away each month, so comment loads and make it easy for us to pick someone to give a voucher too, no discussion will be entered into of course and our decision is final blah blah blah.
