I live a very healthy lifestyle. I eat organic food and exercise several times a day. I don’t eat much meat, and the meat I do eat is free-range from humanely raised animals. As a result, I am in excellent shape and health for my age. As much fun as I poke at warmistas’ BS, I share a lot of their core values. A low carbon lifestyle is indeed a healthy lifestyle.
More than 1.1 million people have died in auto accidents since January 1, and tens of millions have been injured. Cars cause huge amounts of pollution and clog the roads with unhappy drivers. Idiot drivers keep crashing into me on my bicycle.
Hopefully we can all find common ground and make life better for everyone. We only have one planet and limited resources.
Organic food, you like Copper? They use it as a pesticide 😛
They also use Roanoke, a pesticide first discovered by Amazon Indians (Not Amazonian Indians) and used to kill all the aquatic life in rivers and streams for only a tiny amount of human food. But what the hey, its Organic. Then there is all that Sulfur that is often stripped mined and used on Organic crops to kill spider mites.
Then there is this little link.

“We only have one planet and limited resources.”
You are of course speaking for yourself,…. this planet doesn’t belong to humanity and you have no real choice in the matter of future destiny.
FYI the space age is here and within a century or two, Terrestrial humanity will make the transition to a Solar species,… and beyond that a Galactic species.
Asides from which one get’s the impression that you identify with your body as to what and who you are. Reminds me of some wisdom from the East…
The ignorant don’t understand and think they are their body.
The intelligent don’t understand and think they are a soul/spirit vivifying a body.
The wise understand and are in harmony with the ONE that is ALL.
The problem is though, if we want everyone to go back to organic, then we’ll have to clear all the remaining forests. As it’s only the mass production that’s keeping the world alive today. Only the inner city trendies can afford to have organic 😛
Also from Warmwell
Warwell also figured out that CAGW was a scam early on.

A reasonable statement, but don’t expect the watermelons to engage
Your credibility withers the more you expose your audience to your self-righteous proclamations. It’s obvious you have a streak of fanaticism that isn’t really very “healthy.”
When you finally drop the pretense of “I’m better than all the rest of you” we’ll restore your link to our blog roll. Here’s the test: see if you can go a month without your self-serving, eco-granola boasting and we’ll reconsider.
I write about what is important to me. I really don’t give a FF what anyone else thinks!
The fact that you don’t fit all the stereotypes of either the left wing or right wing shows that you are not obsessed with trying to fit in. That is to your credit. You are who you are and proud of it!
That’s the problem at the moment, it’s either too right or too left. Normal every day people are being sidelined, and they are the majority.
I too exercise and eat healthy, but I don’t need all this ideological BS to make me feel special or to preach or to earn an income.
We just finished with Bush’s BS about oil running out, terrorism, now it’s the world is going to explode scares. Both sides have their own scares to make their own people make money. We just lead normal leaders to lead normally. Soon the western countries will all have completely hung parliaments while their economies are in disarray.
I agree, when you eat, if it didn’t walk or grow in the sun, you should eat it. You don’t need man to make your food, nature does a better job.
The world is like a gigantic bar fight.
All you wanted to do was score with the barmaid but now you have to watch out for the louts around you throwing punches in every direction…..AND keep an eye on that guy who is sneaking around picking up money from tables and rifling the till.
@2:05 pm. Th th th thats all folks. Thats more than enough for me.
Everyone has a lifestyle choice. My objection is when some enlist the aid of the State to force their values on everyone else. If I choose to hop in the car on impulse to head on over to the closest burger joint to gorge on Deluxe Bacon Cheeseburgers, even if it’s not the healthiest choice, I don’t want someone taking that particular pleasure away from me.
BTW, your experience with drivers is not unique. I find that when I’m walking along the highway (it’s pretty rural out here), most drivers will maintain their position on the highway; some will cross the center line to steer clear of my presence (overly cautious in my view); then there are those few who seem to want to see how close they can get to me … I’ve seen them swerve to get as close as they can to the shoulder of the road without hitting me. I’ve adopted the attitude that whether I’m walking facing traffic or riding my bike with the flow of traffic, that I’m wearing a bullseye target, placed there for the benefit of those sad drivers who seem to suddenly feel empowered when within the safe confines of their cars … they can take out their pathetic frustrations on weaker targets (pedestrians and bicyclists). Maybe they like playing chicken when they think there’ll be to consequences to them … till they find themselves in court on charges of vehicular homicide.
That is the reason I gave up bike riding decades ago as well as jogging on the roads. My trainer and I even had some fool idiot drive our horses into the woods destroying the carriage trying to escape her. (I owned the wheelers and he owned the leaders)

As you can see a wagonnette sits high enough to be above the backs of the horses and you can look DOWN into a car so it should have enough road presence to demand respect from cars. It also let me see the driver had her head under the dash while searching in her purse for a cigarette. The purse sat on the floor on the passenger side.
Despite that Ed was the one ticketed and held to blame for the accident because the wagonnette wheel tracks were in the middle of the dirt road going around a corner several thousand feet from the accident site. Never mind that the car was almost off the road on the left and was 100% plus in our lane. No wheel tracks for the car just four eye witnesses. (Daddy of course was a local big wig and his darling daughter would lose her license with one more ticket)

However as rah will tell you the modern drivers have no respect for vehicles that can easily kill them. Friends with motorcycles have told me cars will try to run them off the road too.
