CHIEF SEATTLE - a fabrication?
Many have been inspired by the words of Chief Seattle.
Learn the truth about that speech. The version most of us learned

come up with the truth.

FOOD CHOICES
Our food choices affect the entire planet as well as our bodies
and minds. What we buy to eat determines our values and sets
the tone for how we live on this Earth. There can be no larger
impact on our world than the choices we make for our food.
These organizations will support you in this adjustment. If
your health is good (as your doctor if you have any doubt),
you should be able to try eliminating meat and dairy from
your diet for a couple of weeks. Try it and see how you feel.
And don't forget your companion animals - they shouldn't have
to eat the leavings from the slaughterhouse floor or drink
polluted tap water.

PET AND ANIMAL CARE
How we care for our companion animals and the actions we take
when we see humans or non-human animals in distress defines
us as intelletual and spiritual beings. The sooner we stop
treating all that is non-human as "other" and "less
than," the sooner we will be able to reconnect with the
natural world around us.
Commercial pet food is toxic and may be responsible for
many of the life-threatening ailments our pets have. And the
toxins we are putting into the ecosystem are affecting not
only human health, but animal health as well. Check out these
links for help in trying to do the best for non-human species
in your care or in your world.
