E-DAY
"The small things in life can make a big difference"
Energy Saving Day (E-Day) is an editorially and financially independent and apolitical organisation which aims to make action to tackle climate change.
Their proposal is to make a 24 hrs maximum reduce power consumption in the UK,
between 6pm on Wednesday 27 February 2008 and 6pm on Thursday 28 February.
Everyone who wants to take part in E-Day is being asked to leave off household electrical items, which do not need to be on, and to leave these items off for as long as possible.
These might include lights in rooms that are not being used, televisions left on standby, mobile phone chargers left plugged in, unused printers, etc, etc.
During this experiment everyone in the country will be invited to see if they can save energy in their home, school or office, by leaving off electrical items which are not in use, and then offered direct feedback on the results of their actions on national electricity demand via the E-Day website (www.e-day.org.uk).
Climate change is a very serious reality, we can make the difference, each and every one of us count, let’s listen to the earth, let’s respect nature.
Druid Spirituality isn’t just about improving your own life — it’s about making a difference to the world too — it’s about becoming environmentally responsible.

In our every deliberation, we must consider the impact of our decisions on the next seven generations.- Native American maxim
Today, we all see that man can destroy the foundations of his existence, his earth, hence, that we can no longer simply do what we like or what seems useful and promising at the time with this earth of ours, with the reality entrusted to us. On the contrary, we must respect the inner laws of creation, of this earth, we must learn these laws and obey these laws if we wish to survive. Consequently, this obedience to the voice of the earth, of being, is more important for our future happiness than the voices of the moment, the desires of the moment. In short, this is a first criterion to learn: that being itself, our earth, speaks to us and we must listen if we want to survive and to decipher this message of the earth. And if we must be obedient to the voice of the earth, this is even truer for the voice of human life. Not only must we care for the earth, we must respect the other, others: both the other as an individual person, as my neighbour, and others as communities who live in the world and have to live together. – Pope Benedict XVI
'In lovely harmony the wood has put on its green mantle, and summer is on its throne, playing its string-music; the willow, whose harp hung silent when it was withered in winter, now gives forth its melody — Hush! Listen! The world is alive. - Thomas Evans

FELI Z JUEVES!
Aunque, platicando con algunos de los inmigrantes españoles de aqui, rei mucho con esta idea:
---------
Para los tíos… nada. Hay que admitirlo; no hay ningún día especial donde las mujeres pueden demostrar su aprecio. Por eso se ha creado una nueva fiesta. El 18 de diciembre es ahora oficialmente el día de: CHULETÓN Y MAMADA.
Simple, eficaz y explícito… este día ha sido creado para que las mujeres puedan demostrar su amor por el hombre de su vida. Nada de cartas, ni de flores, ni noche especial en la ciudad, ni baile sudamericano… es muy simple, un buen chuletón y una buena mamada. ¡Eso es todo!
La idea está lanzada y como todas las ideas nuevas hay que hacerlo circular para crear un efecto de bola de nieve, así que hacedlo circular a ver si hacemos crecer el amor y la paz en este mundo de locos. Además, al no ser una celebración auspiciada por multinacionales, ni por grandes superficies comerciales a fin de incrementar sus ventas, no deberían producirse reticencias, aunque todos conocemos a las mujeres…
---------Después de discutirlo arduamente con Elihu, dijimos, ¿porque no dos celebraciones, y otra que se llame dia de la Chela y el Chibuqui? Todo dependería la cantidad de dinero que la damicela en cuestión haga gastar al caballero de blanca armadura...
