Quote for Day

Those environmentally concerned participants of Paris’s conference on global warming may want to add this quote to their collection of writings by the almost extinct breed of environmentally-aware American politicians (Al Gore being the last of the line . . .)

“The greatest service which can be rendered any country is to add an useful plant to its culture.”

No, this is not a quote by famous ‘tree-hugger’- Al Gore, but a much earlier
tree-hugger - Thomas Jefferson.
