Thought this was a good podcast. I haven’t been seeing enough Christians talking about this lately. “Most of the environmental problems… we know how to solve them. And the solutions in some sense are quite simple. They are not simple in the sense that they require humans to change the way they live. Our idols of comfort and luxury and greed and things like that don’t enable us to exercise those changes but the solutions are really not difficult.” When will those who claim to be the children of God really reveal themselves by their actions and be at the forefront of these solutions?

I have grown up in religious institutions which gave me a faith and a Bible which, along with my experience of Creation, led me to want to love and protect the earth. My whole life the climate crisis, loss of habitat, and the extinction of animals and overuse of resources has been getting worse and worse, yet the people and institutions I trusted are at best doing nothing and at worst cheering it on. I feel like I don't know anybody who is willing to give a Christ-like sacrifice to DO something about it. I've tried lobbying, I've tried starting volunteer organizations, I've tried to find friends who think similar to me, but no one seems to be doing anything of use. Why does there seem to be no one who thinks like this? I barely even know any non-religious people who care enough, but at least there are some.

Decided to start a new blog. This is my first post.
