I decided to take a break from all my work and actually check my email.
I've been reading through some PETA Prime articles that I've been behind on and I found one with some truly inspirational words.
How do you want the world to be? Are you willing to do something about it? My vision is that all living beings will be recognized and honored for their contribution. That is the context for my life. How can our vision be expressed in the world? By the decisions we make and the actions that we take every day... This is one way to express what is important. Your vision can be expressed in many ways.
I thought it was inspirational at least. The article is about people who help in any way, and how we can help make a chance. http://prime.peta.org/2009/05/how-to-change-the-world?=cppenews509
There's also a few other articles that are worth reading:

Also, I thought I should inform you about a contest hosted by WWF's Earth Hour. If you send in a picture of yourself using a reusable bag, you can win a prize. (Don't quote me on it) http://wwf.ca/takeaction/shareit/?homepage

PS: Did everybody hear about the victory for seals? The European Union has boycotted seal products from Canada. :) Woop woop.
PPS: If you didn't hear about it, sign up for some e-newsletters! It was in WWF, IFAW, PETA, and so many others! I read the same thing about eighteen times!
