That's a big goal of mine, to try and grow as much of my own food as possible

It's not necessary to go far and wide. I mean, you can really find exciting and inspiring things within your hometown.

I really struggle with that feeling of helplessness. That's why I really try to get my blogs, and even myself, to point to the positive and look at all the inspiring things that are happening.

It's really important to me to show the interconnectedness of things. I always try to illustrate how environmentalism, humanitarianism, animal rights - all those things - are one and the same.

I love the idea that biodiesel has the potential to support farmers, especially the family farms.

It's the first villain that I've played in a movie that has absolutely no vulnerability and no innocence, nothing whatsoever that is likeable about her other than she's so bad.

I'd like to provide information, inspiration, and access to whatever goods and services are needed to make it super easy for everyone to change their lifestyle to a sustainable one.

The biodiesel we use is 100 percent, it has no petroleum in it. It was already used in fryers throughout our local area. It's already had one life and now it's going to be used again, which is nice.

I no longer have time for unnecessary drama. I wasted so much time scared, self-conscious and insecure. Life is too short to stress the small things anymore.

And I know that the younger generation is doing things that are so ingenious. And for them it's not a matter of a political belief or an environmental stance. It's really just common sense.

Life is too short to stress the small things anymore.

Create memories every day. Enjoy every moment every way.

Vision transforms hope into committed action and passion transforms wants into new realities.

Every morning is a fresh breath and blessings.

We all look back at some time or other and wonder why we didn't listen to our instincts. Why did we hestiate? Why did we lose our dreams?

A pregnant pause with enough gestation can give birth to a well formed idea.

The way towards simplicity is through outrage.

Carbs are devastating for the brain.

Human beings may hate a distant enemy in theory, but they generally prefer to kill their neighbors.

The nature of the mind is completely incredible.

When there is hope in the future, there is power in the present, and since hope is the foundational quality of all change, there is considerable reason to be excited.
