Townhall.com<\/a> posted an article today about the founder of Earth Day<\/a>. The man was seriously into composting.<\/p>\n

The article reports:<\/p>\n

Ira Einhorn<\/a> was on stage hosting the first Earth Day event at the Fairmount Park<\/a> in Philadelphia<\/a> on April 22, 1970. Seven years later, police raided his closet and found the “composted<\/a>” body of his ex-girlfriend inside a trunk.<\/strong><\/p>\n

A self-proclaimed environmental activist, Einhorn made a name for himself among ecological groups during the 1960s and ’70s by taking on the role of a tie-dye<\/a>-wearing ecological guru and Philadelphia\u2019s head hippie. With his long beard and gap-toothed smile, Einhorn \u2014 who nicknamed himself “Unicorn” because his German-Jewish<\/a> last name translates to “one horn” \u2014advocated flower power, peace and free love to his fellow students at the University of Pennsylvania<\/a>. He also claimed to have helped found Earth Day.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Taking care of the earth is something we should all do every day. I suppose it is nice that we take one day a year and celebrate our home. However, like anything else, taking care of the earth has to be done in a way that respects all aspects of life.<\/p>\n

I was at the aquarium with some of my granddaughters yesterday and picked up a book for young readers. It was pure propaganda. Rational human beings<\/a> need to take over the environmental movement<\/a>. so far that hasn’t happened.<\/p>\n
