Benedict XVI on the Environment - I'm surprised that religion
hasn't embraced the environmental movement more in recent times, but

churches, we need to commit ourselves to caring for the created world,
without squandering its resources, and sharing them in a cooperative
way."

Warming is Good - Marketing guru Seth Godin recently published
a post about why the term "Global Warming" is not the right

worst global problem to face humanity.

they've always been done has got such a down to earth outlook on things
like climate change. Prince Charles is a keen organic farmer and stresses
the importance of buying locally produced foods where possible.
