You cannot play one to ignore the other. It won’t work. We live on a global biosphere in a Cosmic system.

I ended up with burrs all over my jacket. I was surprised at myself, I was more amused than POed as I would normally be at getting stuck with them. I didn’t wear gloves though, yuck.

I guess that the grass is not always greener at the other side! How long did it take for Mission Viejo to get that top rating? Keep up the good work.

Bailey Sun, 21 Mar 2010 04:42:16 +0000 http://blog.epa.gov/blog/?p=1654#comment-28121 I had to go away from home for 2 days to a meeting in another city at the other end of the state. You don’t know how environmentally friendly a town Mission Viejo is until you go someplace else. Mission Viejo is ranked number 7 in the country as an environmentally friendly community. The city I went to up north could not say the same thing. They are having a major funding crisis. One of the things I noticed on the shuttle from the airport to the hotel as we went through residential areas to leave people off at their homes, was in the gutter in front of each house a pile of leaves and trash some so high they spilled over into the roadway. No police to be seen anyplace accept at the airport. The transit agency serving the city saying big and deep service cuts are on the way. And several full city blocks of what used to be warehouses and manufacturing facilities being bulldozed out. It shows you don’t know how good things really are at home until you have gone someplace else. Best wishes, Michael E. Bailey.

To control such I intend to post a sign in front of my farm stating: Vote ‘em out. Local, State, Federal. Hope many will follow.

Every time i drove in n out, there seemed to be more, even broken glass….. So, i decided to doublebag n part with my latex gloves. My clean up was worth it, although, i got alot of looks. It was probalby because i wasn’t wearing a uniform to clean up. And, maybe others will act in their neighborhood : ) Have a Happy Spring ~
