...world economy, without which business and development would collapse and millions would stagnate in poverty. If you're anyone else, you'll know them as giant enterprises making billion-dollar profits, by turns accused of holding the world economy hostage, precipitating a global food crisis and endangering the planet. Now imagine the public relations nightmare facing an oil company that uses technology responsible for powering Nazi Germany, that propped up apartheid for decades and that operates a plant with the dubious distinction of being the world's biggest single-point source of carbon dioxide.

...quest for a greener planet, the smallest details can make a big difference. It's not just how the food we eat is grown that matters, but how it's packaged, how it gets to our plates, even what we do with the leftovers. Just ask chef Arthur Potts Dawson.

(I know because I had plenty of time to study my planet-friendly card key during several trips to the front desk to get it to finally work.) Obama's heavy chore in Denver was to unite all these folks to seize the opportunity of a big Democratic year...
Your article espousing the slaughter of goats was repellent. Vegetarianism is advancing because it's irrefutably beneficial for the planet. Soy, nuts, beans, flax and grains can easily supplant animal protein. Spare the goats and enjoy some oats. Brien Comerford, GLENVIEW...
