But you can watch what you eat. A little change here, a little change
there.

And I do. Every little bit....

No, it the businesses that are doing it. Which is also OK, but we are
big and ugly enough to know when enough is enough and should act on
it.

I think stupidity and lack of responsibility for the results of one's own
actions is growing right along with our waistlines.

But we don't need to, it's damaging to ourselves, it's damaging to
global resources. Why grow/raise two of everything, when we only
really need one? Next time you feel like making a pig of yourself,
cast an eye to the famine zones of the world, think what they would do
for just a bowl of rice, let alone a 4lb steak with all the trimmings,
fit for five people but served only for one!

I know, I know, but it's still just human nature (literally in our genes) to
indulge in times of plenty, in order to survive the lean times. Our times
of
plenty are just lasing too darn long these days so we are having to overcome
instinct, basically. It's hard to overcome, but I'm trying. Some days I
just say.....oh, what the heck, and eat that steak (not 4 pounds though) ;-)
