I know that none of these feelings are good for my health but that's what I'm feeling. Thanks to some dirty politics in my town, this supposedly green community will be polluted (at the taxpayers' expense). And lots of parents voted for this! Their excuse was "I don't like the environmental impact either, but it's so good for athletics". Since when did sports become more important than the environment, more important than academics? (since this is money we won't have to rehire teachers and ta's we had to let go) No, don't answer that. After Penn State nothing about America's obsession with sports should surprise me. I work so hard to control what I put in my body to try and be as healthy as possible, and to do the same for my children. But there's no way to protect them from this. On top of it, I'll have to stop using my garden. We don't get a lot of food, but it's beautiful to pick herbs for dinner, and to eat the produce we do get. Now the toxic runoff will be washing right through my garden unless we can find a way to re-route it without just sending it to our neighbors. This sucks!!!! Thanks for listening to me vent. I liked living here a lot more when I didn't pay attention to these things. (Like several people I spoke to who had no idea there was even a vote!) But because of my kids, I feel like I have to be aware.
