19th May 2025 Bulletin Eco-Corner

Shavuot is the festival that celebrates the handing down of the Ten Commandments (as well as – Eco Corner was interested to learn - being the ancient harvest festival of the Land of Israel, which doesn't really scan in these parts).  Accordingly Eco-Judaism has taken the opportunity to hand down their own Ten Commandments here.
 
The second of these is striking as Eco-Judaism suggests that you “consider making a few non-dairy swaps in your everyday diet, like oat or almond milk [for animal milk]”, and then hits us with a Fact Attack!  Apparently “the biggest dairy companies in the world have the same combined greenhouse gas emissions as the whole of the UK”!  One is reminded of the Bible verse, “he hath given unto us this land, a land that floweth with plant oil colloidal suspensions and honey”.  Chag Sameach from all at Eco Corner!
