Thank you for participating in Blog Action Day.

I did not participate.

However, I did write a belated post about an environmental issue that is important to me. I see a lot of people using a product in luxury homes that is very destructive in a number of ways. Check out this post, please:

Brazilian Teak Floors, Slave Labor, and the Destruction of the Rainforest.

Your blog seemed like the right place for sharing this post.

Whatever you can do to share this link or help promote awareness of this issue will be greatly appreciated. Normally, I don't ask for this kind of help, but the issue is that important to me. Most luxury home owners are unaware of the environmental and human cost of these products.

Thank you!
