Paul Greenberg and Carl Safina
Time
Earth Day is upon us—that forlorn little non-holiday that some years sandwiches itself between Easter and Passover, or other years trails in the wake of those “real” holidays. If the Super Bowl is America’s unofficial national day of celebration, Earth Day is the collective yawn that brings a shrug. No recipes offer Earth Day chips and dips to serve when friends and beloveds gather in celebration of the miracle of a living planet. Because they don’t. Not even ours.
For the two of us environmentalists—one of us nominally Jewish, the other a recovering Catholic—we find the ill-defined nature of the only day honoring the place that makes life itself possible more than a little sacrilegious. So, on this 53rd Earth Day we thought it useful to pose what a real Earth Day should represent and how it could form a central time for a new approach to worship. More
That’s just retarded.
On a more realistically defined Earth Day, we should be sending thank you cards and gifts to oil drillers, coal miners, farmers (of both food and trees), fishermen, dam builders, and everyone who makes life better through responsible stewardship and efficient extraction and use of natural resources.
(but only those who haven’t gone “woke”)
I’m setting off a tire in their honor soon. Knock yourself out.
Another holiday?
I still haven’t taken down my george floyd decorations…
They traded the truth of God for a lie, and worshipped created things, instead of the Creator who forever shall be praised
Romans 1:25.
Leave it to the death cult to promote something for a holiday, that was founded by a dude who murdered his girlfriend.
Did we miss celebrating Ol’ Ira’s death.
He kicked off in 2020. I know we were neck deep in all the scamdemic crap, but a small celebration would have been nice.
For some people, it already is. I celebrate it by turning on all my lights and farting.
I don’t want to hear what their 10 commandments are, only minions must follow, the elite are exempt.
if they were to make it a holiday, it should be on a set day. They’ll monetize any holiday they would create, and have it be on a weekend, so it wouldn’t interfere with corporate America and having to give employees a paid day offf. The original earth day (I was there in Fairmount Park) was on April 20, so they should use that date, which, of course, is also hitler’s birthday, and they know that.
“ Paul Greenberg and Carl Safina”, AKA Keister Cowboys. This has all the makings of another Federal Employee Holiday.
On earth day I religiously eat meat, use charcoal & drive a V-8.
Traditions must be maintained.
@Brad — I’m ALMOST in favor of another govt employee holiday. A day of them not working is a one day less of the damage they do.
I’m with Cynic, I fart in their general direction!
Sounds like it would be a pagan holiday. With enviro wackadoodles holding human life in low regard, human sacrifice may become a highlight of the celebrations.
Uncle Al
Damn good point buddy. LOL
eat hearts of palm salad (need to cut down a palm tree), shark fin soup (fights cancer), pate de fois gras (gotta force overfeed a goose), and veal (the Biblical fatted calf) for Earth Day
was America’s Most Wanted cancelled for bringing Ira Einhorn to justice?
While it’s true they overfeed a goose to make pate, there’s nothing forced about it. The birds will trample each other to get to the funnel.
I celebrated by changing my oil and pouring the old oil down the gutter. You know, to give it its freedom.
There was a good reason Time magazine was sold for $1 back in 2010!
Clair turned Time into an arm of the liberal propaganda machine 63 years ago. It was owned by he dim witted, but very rich – Biden like- husband. Clair fucked may rich and famous men other than her Biden like husband. on of the “lovers: was Joe Kennedy. She would be an “advisor” to his son JFK from 1960 to 1963. She was a “Bush Republican” before Bush.
For those <60 JFK WAS not republican!
It took me 3 years to realize the far left "news" articles in 'Time were not "aberrations" but the new "norm" I canceled my subscription in 1963!
Time is still the liberal FAKE NEWS mag Clair turned it mint 3 years ago.
“TIME is biased at times.”
