Hi Mrs Shari Arison,
I admire you for your desire to make this planet a better one.
Yes I do believe we need to use natural resources more.
It should benefit all mankind.
We as a family have a small store in Germany near Stuttgart.
We sell product from Israel & the Orient.
For south a small store it is very difficult to survive.
We need help. Would you be willing?
Shalom
Vera & Franz Laslo
