If taxes are to help protect and sustain a quality of life for all, then taxing the things that protect and sustain quality of life may not be logical. Not getting political - just contemplating. What would Spock do?

We love helping our mother Earth. Picked up about 25 pounds of waste along the river trail as part of #KCplogtober with #TeamJOCO

@jallen1985 Absolutely wild. Could have put $7.5B to use creating something sustainable for the community and for the potential employees who aren't running this coal plant.

Our family has started buying these single-serving ice cream cups. Paper cartons can't be recycled or composted, but these can be recycled. Better for the environment means we can eat 2 at a time... right?

Not all bees are yellow! Solitary bees like the Blue Orchard Mason Bee are far more effective pollinators than honeybees, and less likely to sting humans! Many solitary bees nest in the ground, cracks in bricks and cement foundations (hence mason bees).

It's #PollinatorWeek, and Kansas has some AMAZING pollinators like the Ruby Throated Hummingbird. Show them some love with native flowers.

An orchard that will provide 4,000 pounds of fresh fruit for hunger relief? WIN! A volunteer program that helps lower rates of re-incarceration? WIN! This latest planting was a WIN-WIN with @FoodCycleKC! Check out our Facebook post for more information! https://t.co/SJk2NgDsvR

Family, friends and food! Stay well everyone. If you know someone who may be food insecure or has nobody with whom to connect this #Thanksgiving, please message us - we'd love to help!

[JCDHE @JOCOHealth]

The safest way to celebrate #Thanksgiving is with your household members. Cook traditional family recipes, have a virtual dinner with your friends and family or watch parades and movies from your cozy couch. More tips: https://t.co/8jXdNps1MM
