My husband and I watched Al Gore's documentary, "The Inconvenient Truth" this past weekend. The story is moving, but frightening. It fills your head with all sorts of thoughts - but the two that kept circling in my head are :
 
1. What can I do to help? to stop this? How can I stop what may just be inevitable? Afterall, what scientists predict seems quite similar to the references in Revelations.

2. Am I a reactive person like the majority of the world or will I be proactive? At some point we need to stand up and fight for things, right?

It's easy to jump on the bandwagon and join the rest, it's difficult to pave your own way and go against the grain. But yet, those people are the ones who are most successful in life.

The next question I think of through all this is:

Do we, as Christians, have an obligation to learn as much as possible about global warming and the dangers to the environment?  Do we, as Christians, have an obligation to fight for this planet? 

Iif you haven't seen the movie yet - watch it. Maybe you will ask yourself the same questions I am asking. If there are many of us asking the same questions - we may arrive at the same answer, create our own bandwagon and be proactive!

I sincerely believe that we, as Christians, as humans - have the obligation to do what we can NOW to save what God gave us. As Gore states in his documentary, this is a "moral", not political issue.

Any thoughts????
