It's Game Time Kids!

Everyone likes a good game and I haven't done this since the end of June - so let's get going...

What are you looking here?









Still unsure?



Take a closer look...









Figure it out or totally clueless?


You are looking at an artistic depiction of the 2 million plastic bottles used in the U.S. every 5 minutes. 2 million every 5 minutes! That's just crazy ans wasteful.

Think of all the petroleum used to produce the plastic bottles, to transport them, etc. It's sickening.


Thank you, thank you, thank you, Chris Jordan for shedding light on the huge waste in America (that goes for other countries as well!).

My husband and I no longer drink bottled water or use plastic bags. They're just not necessary. I keep net/canvas bags with me at all times, simply use my handbag, or I carry my purchases with me and just set them in the car. Nothing wrong with water in a glass either? Bottled water is a marketing scheme...pure and simple.

If we happen to use plastic or whatever - we make a point to recycle and/or reuse.

Make as many changes as you can in your life. Share the information with family and friends. Change begets change and that's what it is going to take to make our planet a better place.

It's Game Time Again!

I haven't done this since the middle of May so it's time we play again...

What are you looking at here?











Still uncertain?


Here's a closer look...










Got it?

You are looking at an artistic depiction of the 9 million children in the U.S. without health insurance coverage for the year 2007.

Shocking right? Thank you to Chris Jordan for his important contribution to thought provoking art. Jordan has a show running in NYC through the end of July at the Von Lintel Gallery. Check it out if you can!

It's Game Time!

I just have to share these with you. See if you can figure it out...

What are you looking at here?






Still uncertain? Here's a slightly closer look...






Got it? You're looking at a Chris Jordan Photographic Arts depiction of "60,000 plastic bags - the number used in the U.S. every 5 seconds"....


THINK ABOUT IT and invest in some canvas bags. More cities need to follow San Francisco's example of banning all plastic grocery bags. Period. -- You can click the pics for a closer view.
