A thousand points of light
Was how Poppy Bush and the clan saw those whose actions affected the world in a positive way. No doubt they were points because the Bush clan was so far removed from understanding why that they could not see the real people doing what is right. Like this guy.
Brian LaFave couldn’t care less how high gasoline prices climb these days — he’s parked his pickup truck and refuses to buy gas for at least a month.One persons effort, what are you doing?
“The goal is to not use one drop of gas for 31 days,” La-Fave said of his personal stand against the oil companies. Now LaFave, 31, rides his bicycle or walks everywhere he goes.
He won’t let friends pick him up unless they already planned on being in the neighborhood.
He plans to compute his savings and donate that amount to a charity that provides food to children in Africa.
