OK, I don't know if anyone even visits here anymore, but I'm going to post in any case.
I came across this book on Amazon today. Its not a Tolkien book, but I think Tolkien would approve, thus I'm adding it tho this forum and the The Kitchen.
I'm going to buy it. The reviews have intrigued me.

Did you get the book Strange Elf? What did you think of it? It is a good topic for our times.
It does sound intriguing. Not a day goes pass when you don't read or hear on tv something about saving our world. Ever since I watched the Blue Planet I have become more aware of just how much plastic is used these days. I am sure Tolkien would be appalled by the state of things today.
I always imagine hobbits making their own shopping baskets and recycling waste food to the compost pile. They managed well without plastics for one. I can remember there was little or no plastic when I was a child. You never heard then of birds or insects you saw in your garden or in the fields and lanes becoming an endangered species. That is what I heard this morning on the radio.
Where are the hobbits or Treebeard and the Ents when you need them? I bet they could give us a few handy tips.
