Hunting in the past, was done out of necessity. Hunting today, is a ‘sport’ for sickos. The majority of participants are gun-loving asses that consider hunting not only a sport, but a delightful activity. Hunting is NOT a sport, and for those who find killing with no good reason enjoyable, give me your address so I can kick you in the face.

As if animals such as deer aren’t killed often enough, highways and other roads end many more precious lives. Approximately one million animals a day are killed on US highways thanks to severe habitat destruction that has turned their land into roadways. It is too bad roads aren’t the only thing our wildlife has to worry about.

Millions of deer are killed each year by blood-thirsty, camo wearing maniacs. They are a society (a very creepy and heartless one). They murder the animal from hundreds of yards away, and they hang it’s head on their wall. They show absolutely no respect for it, and they make sure to get a few pictures after a kill (like the one above). Big smiles, you’ve officially made up for for the fact that you have a tiny penis. “NATTTT” – Borat

When I was younger I lived near a large wooded area. It was eventually flattened by clear cutting, but this was before that horrible event. I was walking through the woods when I stumbled upon a bloody mess… literally. There were body parts everywhere, these deer had been “jacked”, skinned, and butchered in the woods because it is illegal to “jack” deer.

“Jacking” deer involves shining a spot light in the eyes of a deer at night and shooting it while it stands there mesmerized by the light. Deer come out for the ‘safety’ of nightfall. They graze, and they socialize. These open fields are often near to, or connected to roads. They blind it, kill it, and either butcher it their like I mentioned, toss it in the back and cover it, or even put it under the hood of a large truck.

Kids are being brought into the “sport” of hunting at a young age. They are being raised to think this is normal, and they will raise their children the same. This cycle has to stop. Killing for fun is not right.

Hunters tend to be convinced that if they did not hunt, that the world would become over populated with certain species. They do not realize that animals are not idiots. Just like mice in a cage only breed when there is space for their young to live, other wildlife are not going to knowingly overpopulate. That would just equal more competition for food and stomping grounds. We are the ones causing an out of control population crisis (7 billion in no time), because we are the idiots.

This little eleven year old sicko got international attention for killing this giant hog. I hate to say, most of this attention did not focus on the fact that it was an atrocity. In the majority of coverage it received, they were just amazed by the size of the hog and the little bastard was praised for the kill. What is wrong with our world?Many have seen this picture as it is all over the net, but I’m not sure if everyone has heard an update on the story. That pig had a name. Its name was Fred, and it was some ones pet hog that had escaped four days previous. Why someone was keeping a 1,051 pound hog at home, I do not know.We’ve got creepy camouflaged men and women in the woods shooting everything they see, and we even have children doing so. Tens of thousands of dogs and cats die every year because hunters like to shoot whatever they see that moves. When will this creepy George Bush loving society leave this earth? I hope to be alive to see the end of their sick ways of thinking.

I’ve recently switched to recycled paper products myself. I’ve always been earth concious and felt it was time to take the next big step. lol, this is not a big step at all. It’s easy, sacrifice a little softness for our boreal forests. Clear cutting is out of control, and we need to lower demand.Why?So they can slow the heck down. Toilet paper and other papers products that are not recycled exist because we buy them. Brands like Cashmere and Royal make the softest of the soft, and they use what the industry call ‘virgin fibres’. Virgin fibres are just as they sound, newly hacked down trees. I’m not sure everyone realizes how many trees actually get cut down each year.

Believe it or not, about four billion trees are cut down each year for paper products. This represents 35% or so of all harvested trees. Seventh Generation, one of the largest recycled producers, estimates that:

• One million trees would be saved if every U.S. household replaced just one 250-count package of virgin fiber napkins with 100 percent recycled ones.
• 544,000 trees would be saved by replacing a 70-sheet roll of virgin fiber paper towels.
• 424,000 trees would be spared by replacing a 500-sheet roll of virgin fiber toilet paper
• 170,000 trees would be saved by replacing one 175-count box of virgin fiber facial tissue.

It is such a simple switch that makes such an impact. Very much like switching to energy saving light bulbs. Sacfrifice a little comfort for our earth and feel good about yourself.

Without trees on this planet of ours it is safe to say we would not exist as we do. A mature leafy tree produces as much oxygen in a season as ten people inhale in a year. On top of that, they also filter the air we are breathing. Trees are nothing but wonderful. Trees absorb dangerous chemicals and other pollutants that have entered the soil, and they control noise pollution. Trees provide sweet shady places, and they even fight soil erosion. Gosh, I love them. Don’t be part of the reason our forests are being flattened.

Have you ever had a forest you were connected to, knocked down? I have. When I was sixteen I watched and old man that was always the grouch of our community, sell all of the land behind his house, AKA, 90% of our trees. He became a millionaire, and died a year later. Karma? That is what I’ve always figured. I did not even know it was being clear cut, I just was going to get water from the spring one day, and it was three quarters eliminated. Needless to say, I was a very angry and I still talk about it to this day. It was one of the most horrible suprises of my life. I’m really not sure why it took so long to switch over. I believe it’s something you tend to not even think about. Toilet paper, paper towells, napkins, and paper. The use of those four products add up.

Ever tried Hemp Hearts? I have not, but I’ve recently heard some things about these shelled little seeds and i plan on ordering some online. They appear to be basically a super food!!

These lil’ guys have been shown to reduce inflamation for people with arthritis. They help reduce high blood pressure and cholesterol, and they have proven to help with weightloss. When eaten they leave your body feeling full and nutritionally satisfied, therefore keeping your appetite under control.Hemp hearts help with digestion problems like constipation and they also fill you with energy. They even appear to be a cure for chronic fatigue.

Clinical studies have shown that hemp hearts are unmatched within nature for their perfect balance of proteins, essential fats and the omega fatty acids 3 and 6. Hemp hearts also contain most of the required vitamins. Hemp hearts contain almost no carbohydrates, saturated fats, or sugars. A single hemp heart is approximatly 33% protein. 4 table spoons of hemp hearts a day are supposedly all you need to maintain energy levels and optimal health. Those 4 table spoons kick the pants off of an energy/protein bar.

Hemp hearts are easy as pie to add to your diet. Toss those 4 tablespoons in your cereal or shake in the morning and you are set. Hemp hearts are tasteless and odorless, so they basically disappear. All the praise I’m giving these little seeds, you’d think I’m selling them for a living. In fact, as i stated up there, I have not even tried them. I am going to though, and i will be sure to update this post with my results when the time comes. I heart hemp hearts!

Meet my cleaning crew. No, not the coconut people. These are cleaning products which have become readily available just about everywhere. They are made from natural ingredients and in my honest opinion work better than there chemical counterparts. Cleaners such as these do not hurt anyone, or anything when they go down the drain. They aren’t loaded with harmful phosphates and a bunch of other things I cannot spell or pronounce. These alternatives are usually slightly more expensive, but they are well worth it. Give them, or something like them a shot. This is our big world, let’s quit dumping poison all over it.

I’m a little tired of being asked the same question over, and over. “You’re a vegetarian, what can you possibly barbeque?”  There are endless possibilities. It is just silliness to think that the only thing that can be cooked on a grill is carcass.

I enjoy a vegetarian barbeque at least three times a week in the summer. There is a meat alternative to almost every regularly grilled meat product. One that I have not seen, and I really do not want to see, would be veggie ribs. That’d just be a little odd.

I had a vegetarian barbeque tonight. We had roasted baby red potatoes with carrots, and veggie and tofu kabobs. The other night we had tofurkey sausages, which have become a bit of a regular thing. If you have not tried them, do it up. They are one of the meals that I most look forward to. Veggie dogs and veggie burgers are of course simple and delightful.

Almost every vegetable can be grilled up at a vegetarian barbeque. You get to spend time outside in the sun, and eat a healthy and delicious meal when you are done. Next time someone asks me that question, I now know I can just send them the link to this post and be done with it. Thank you, and good night.

Unprovoked shark attacks occur on average four times a year. Unprovoked attacks on sharks occur far more frequently. Believe it or not, as many as 73 million sharks die each year by human hands. It does not take much research to find out why.

A massive percentage of shark deaths come about by way or shark ‘finning’. Shark fin soup is hugely popular in Asia and is considered a delicacy. Shark finning is the process of catching sharks, slicing only their fins off, and tossing them back into the deep blue sea to die. It is a sickening practice and I honestly hate even thinking about it.

The collection of shark fins for snotty rich people must stop. Overly expensive delicacies like caviar and shark fin soup are nothing but tool for flaunting ones wealth. Shark finning has finally been banned in Mexico, but it continues to happen in Asia, and will continue to occur if nothing is done about it. Everyday boat loads of shark fins are brought to shore without their owners.

Leave the sharks alone. I HATE SHARK FIN SOUP. Vegetable soup is where it’s at.

To learn more about why these sharks are suffering, check out the amazing film that is, SHARKWATER.

It’s summer now. Get out of the city. Plant a garden, and some trees. Go to the beach. Leave the noise behind.
