Jan, The environmental war isn't always fun and often seems to accomplish little - especially when underfunded.
The greatest myth in the effort is that one person cannot do anything. May I remind you that one of the most deviant corporations in the pollution and "spin" arenas is Proctor and Gamble. P&G started as a small soap company in the colonial days of the United States. They reached where they are today by profiting one penny at a time off each bar of soap or other product for the past two centuries. And now their production facilities poison our rivers, air, drinking water and people. Take a look at the list of consumer products from which they profit every time purchased. No doubt you will find a few in your cupboard - unless you already boycott P&G for their lies, destruction and deceit. Tide, Tampax, Always, Pampers, Luvs, Folgers, Millstone, Pringles, Jif, Crisco, Crest, Sunny Delight, Charmin, Bounty, Puffs, Old Spice, Secret, Sure, Max Factor, Cover Girl, Olay, Head & Shoulders, Pantene, Cascade, Dawn, Ivory, Joy, Bounce, Downy, Comet, Mr. Clean, Bold, Cheer, Era, Gain, Ivory Snow and Fit. The list extends to over 300. Can you imagine the enormity of economic loss to P&G if environmentally concerned consumers were actually aware of where P&G's profits came from and acted to constrict them- through their own consumer choices? The power of one - multiplied thousands of times over. Your contributions are important. No matter how seemingly small. "What you do may seem insignificant. Never the less, it is important that you do it."
