Imagine that you live on a spaceship (because you do) traveling to the nearest extra-solar star* [OK, you're on a BIG spaceship orbiting the Sun...].
What would you take? How would you do things differently?
I'm Pam Hoffman and I was 'green' when it was still a color. I started making different decisions about my personal "Conservation" back in the 80s, I just always thought of it as 'spaceship thinking' so I reused, recycled, re-purposed, composted and plain old did not get things as part of my daily routine.
I'm Jeff Miller. My parents went through the depression and WWII rationing so, I too, was raised to think of ways to reuse, recycle, and re-purpose things. I do my bit to conserve resources but I'm not radical about it. In my own bit of "spaceship thinking," I've always felt that we've been tearing apart the life support system to repair the coffee maker. However, I'm a technophile so I think that our increasing understanding and innovations will eventually solve the problem. I just hope that there's something left to save.
Topic of the week:
There are some folks who won't touch leftovers. Personally, I think they are sometimes BETTER a day or two after they were originally cooked.
Since our friends in the USA are recovering from their holiday feast, I'm wondering - what do YOU like to do with your leftover turkey and other fixins?
I recall making soup with such leftovers (not reserved for this holiday alone!) and it's a good way to warm up on a cold day in November in Northern Ohio.
Go Ahead and Add YOUR ways to Use Turkey Leftovers Below.

6th "Conservation" Linky: Share Ways That You Shop for the Holidays, 11/18/11-11/24/11

Topic of the week:
Conservation isn't limited to 'stuff' it can be conservation of your personal energy, your monetary resources, etc.
This week we will take a look at ways you like to shop for the holidays in relation to these 'conservation' areas.
Would you please share how You Shop for the Holidays? We used to go to a street fair in San Clements, CA every month to shop for gifts in December for the holidays. This was a fun outing and we were able to pay cash and gather what we needed over the months in preparation for the big celebrations!
Go Ahead and Add YOUR Best Holiday Shopping Ideas Below.
