Going green
“You. Are a pioneer in using recycled cups.”
That’s what the green words on my cup tell me, anyway, as I sip a venti organic chai tea with steamed soy milk and look at the green Starbucks logo. The streetlight turns green and I zip along Colima Avenue in Whittier. I am a regular eco-friendly, environmentally-responsible human being. Even my carbon emissions from Vicky’s borrowed car help the planet.

SICS renaming to honor “man with passion for missions”
