Tale of Two Raws

My husband does a fair amount of television watching, and his current favorite is Discovery’s Planet Green, billed as TV’s first all green network. I’ve had a chance to glimpse at it a time or two myself and it’s got a lot of varied and interesting shows. Ed Begley Jr., has a show called Living With Ed, and so does his neighbor, Bill Nye. Remember Bill Nye the Science Guy? His  Green Planet show is called, Stuff Happens explaining cause and effect with an environmental take. What’s fun is there is a friendly competition between them, that leads to some laughs.

Unless you have really embraced the ecological movement and have chosen to live in the high pure-air mountains, and have shunned any form of communication with the polluted lower world, you wouldn’t be reading this, but let me tell you, being green is hot. So hot, if you are a celebrity or someone with any kind of renown or status, if you aren’t driving, wearing, living, drinking, eating or using green products or even green by-products, you just aren’t on the A List. Not that many of us care about the A List, but it demonstrates the influence of fame and it’s far reaching effect. Because being green, or at last making an attempt at it, has filtered down to us masses where green is also a buzz word and something people are talking more and more about.

At RRF we have made and eco- commitment and are using degradeable carry out containers and compost all our vegetable scraps - at least the ones we don’t use in our crackers.
