Thank you to everyone who came last night! Watching the movie was a good way to inspire all of us to do what we can this week, especially since he sacrificed so much. We encourage any of you who didn't get to make it to watch the movie on your own time, its a wonderful story about doing things differently and "opting out" of systems which you don't believe in, as Joel Salatin would say.
Here are a few choice quotes from the movie to take with you:
"People say they couldn't do without this or that, so I said lets just do without it all to make it easier"
"The average American produces about 1600 lbs of trash/year"
"You have to go see how the animals are treated [on the farms where you get your food]"
"Do we have to be a disposable culture?"
"I felt sad for the wanting part of me dying"
"If i can direct my energy towards something good [like trying to live sustainably] then why not"
"People are very traumatized when they are presented with the idea that they should do without"
"The project is to bring attention to the issue"
