Since we only have 60 years of harvest potentially, it is a great idea to start consuming wisely. I would prefer not die of thirst or starvation when I am in my late 90s...Have a great weekend!

This year I am beginning to make a concerted effort to alter my rich trans-national vegan diet to eating mostly Canadian nuts, lentils, peas, and legumes, and local organic tempeh, veggies and fruits.  I have started doing research for this kind transformation in progress...I found that, although much more expensive, I could find Canadian grown organic quinoa, and a selection of legumes and lentils quite easily...Looks like I will be eating lots of Canadian organically grown hemp seeds and hazelnuts...Such great new!  That means I can also make homemade hemp and hazelnut milks! Yay! Also, for anybody who care about their survival, it is a great idea to stop consuming almonds and almond milk because “[i]t takes 1.1 gallons (4.16 litres) of water to grow one almond.”1 And...”[b]etween 2010 and 2015, the market for almond milk surged by 250 percent.”2
