Global Warming
Edited on Sat Jul-01-06 11:42 PM by Reckon
Global Warming Resource Index

Al Gore is changing the debate! As more and more people are exposed to Gore’s message either directly or indirectly, I have noticed in both personal conversations and in the press that more and more people are recognizing the reality of global warming and environmental issues in general are becoming more of a concern to the general public. The protests of global warming nay-sayers are becoming increasingly shrill and impotent and are largely being ignored. Personally, Gore’s comments comparing these protests to previous Tobacco Industries efforts is the most powerful argument - this is a comparison that Americans remember and understand.

If those of us seeking a return to Democracy build on the groundwork that Al Gore has laid, environmental issues can become one of the most important issues in both the 2006 mid-terms and the 2008 elections, if not THE most important issue. According to this Berkeley paper, all of the White Euro-American mainline pastors studied interpreted Genesis 1:28 as instructing Christians to be “stewards of the Earth”, and 40% of White Euro-American Fundamentalist pastors agreed (along with all African-American participants).--johnaries


Global warming is a key issue in winning the next election. We need to seize on the opportunity Al Gore has given us and use the resources listed here get out the word. <-- You can edit this.
