October Diet
Hi,
I am currently on a vegetarian diet, avoiding white flour and basic sugar. Stay tuned for some recipes on this!
I’m also trying to eat as much fresh food as possible, which lead me into trying raw food again. (I was introduced last summer by a friend, but didn’t pay too much attention back then.) I like the idea, but have not found good enough recipes to get hooked. However, when I find a raw food recipe which works for me, I’ll post it!
Why this diet? I suppose it’s a healthy diet for almost anyone, but I have my own reason. I’m trying different kinds of diets, hoping one will be beneficial for my acne, which always increase during the dry winter. But as already stated, fresh and rich food is beneficial for anyone trying to live a healthy life!
This is what got me inspired: Eat Well for a Clean Lymph System (sorry, takes some time to load)

Save the Earth!
On March 28 you can VOTE EARTH by switching off your lights for one hour.
Or you can vote global warming by leaving your lights on.
The results of the election are being presented at the Global Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen 2009. We want one billion votes for Earth, to tell world leaders that we have to take action against global warming.
This year, Earth Hour has been transformed into the world’s first global election, between Earth and global warming. For the first time in history, people of all ages, nationalities, race and background have the opportunity to use their light switch as their vote – Switching off your lights is a vote for Earth, or leaving them on is a vote for global warming. WWF are urging the world to VOTE EARTH and reach the target of 1 billion votes, which will be presented to world leaders at the Global Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen 2009. This meeting will determine official government policies to take action against global warming, which will replace the Kyoto Protocol. It is the chance for the people of the world to make their voice heard.
Earth Hour began in Sydney in 2007, when 2.2 million homes and businesses switched off their lights for one hour. In 2008 the message had grown into a global sustainability movement, with 50 million people switching off their lights. Global landmarks such as the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco, Rome’s Colosseum, the Sydney Opera House and the Coca Cola billboard in Times Square all stood in darkness.
In 2009, Earth Hour is being taken to the next level, with the goal of 1 billion people switching off their lights as part of a global vote. Unlike any election in history, it is not about what country you’re from, but instead, what planet you’re from. VOTE EARTH is a global call to action for every individual, every business, and every community. A call to stand up and take control over the future of our planet. Over 74 countries and territories have pledged their support to VOTE EARTH during Earth Hour 2009, and this number is growing everyday.
We all have a vote, and every single vote counts. Together we can take control of the future of our planet, for future generations.
