What do you do EVERY day to take care of the earth's environment? What could you do more of?
I take public transit on a daily basis and I don't own a car! Moving from Southern California where you pretty much drive EVERYWHERE to Vancouver, a city that has good public transit has been awesome. I can say that it's the best thing I've done in the last year. If I could live in a green home, I would.. one outfitted with solar panels, gray water recycling system, composting, geo-thermal heating and all that good stuff. It will happen one day!
What's your favorite blend or brand of coffee or tea?
i love coffee.. and i love tea!
first.. tea. one of my favourites. yogi ginger tea!
what's great about yogi tea is that not only is it tasty as heck, the little tea bag handle (is that what you call it? hehe) has a wise little quote on it. yummy tea with a dose of wisdom :)
as for coffee, i love anything from gevalia, especially the peruvian organic blend. yum!

What is one of your favorite poems?
Submitted by marvel is my pen name.
I am a sap. What can I say? :) One of my favourite poems from Pablo Neruda.
I do not love you as if you were brine-rose, topaz,
or barbed carnations thrown off by the fire.
I love you as certain hidden things are loved,
secretly, between night and soul.
I love you like the flower-less plant
carrying inside itself the light of those flowers,
and, graced by your love, a fierce perfume
risen from earth, is alive, concealed in my flesh.
I love you without knowing how, whence, when.
I love you truly, without doubts, without pride,
I love you so, and know, no other way to love,
none but this mode of neither You nor I,
so close that your hand over my chest is my hand,
so close they are your eyes I shut when I sleep.
