<p>Today the cold harsh reality of my country&#8217;s cry for help came to full blows.  Today I was turned down for a story on what I do because of my &#8220;political ideology&#8221;.  I guess that my love for sustainability cannot be promoted if I love liberty and free markets. (SIGH) Oh wait a second, that is the ONLY way it would ever be sustainable &#8211; if we are free and able to make money!!</p>
<p>So apparently being grouped into the conservative camp bans one from loving recycling, clean energy, and organic food?  I don&#8217;t think so, but what do YOU think?  Can one love liberty and free markets and at the same time want to save the environment and support local food systems?</p>
<p>I have always believed that loving our country and loving sustainability go hand-in-hand &#8211; regardless of if you are liberal, conservative, or whatever is in between &#8211; has that changed?</p>
<p>We would like to hear from you&#8230;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>By: Angela Beery<br />
<a href="http://www.thatsnatural.info"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-135" title="baby" src="http://blog.thatsnatural.info/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/iStock_000004306066Small-196x300.jpg" alt="" width="196" height="300" /></a>When I think about sustainable living, I think about simplicity.  It was Leonardo DaVinci who said “simplicity is the ultimate sophistication.”  Living sustainably not only makes sense – it’s simply genius!  It follows the laws and order of the universe.  It obeys the “House Rules” plaque my great-grandmother has posted on her bathroom wall – “If you sleep on it – make it up.  If you wear it – hang it up.  If you drop it – pick it up.  If you dirty it – clean it up.”  Sustainable living is the ultimate common sense.<br />
The simplicity of sustainability makes life easier and more economical in all areas – including when it comes to raising young children.  It’s easier because you need less.  It’s more economical, again, because you need less.  Raising a sustainable-minded family proves that less is indeed more.</p>
