Did you know...
Air pollution is a global problem. Although Greenland has about half the population of Nanaimo atmospheric pollution is still found there. (Due to air currents.)
We DO have a problem.
80-90% of energy in developed countries comes from fossil fuels. Due to rising populations and depleting resources, it is likely that these resources WILL be used up within the next 50 years UNLESS we do something about it. I've heard from so many people, "I'm a Christian. I have a passion for Jesus, I'm not willing to have a passion for anything else including environmental issues." I don't get that. If you have a passion for Jesus you should have a passion for His people. If you have a passion for His people you should be doing your best to live a lifestyle so that His people will have a future on this planet. If you aren't Christian and you don't care about other people, think about your kids and your grandkids. Do you really want to leave them with the problem of fixing the enormous problem that we (and past generations) have created? Think about it.

You are soo right. There should be complete compatibility between these two things. I think what people are really saying is that they find it exhausting to be passionate about more than one thing in today's crazy stressed out world. Also, they really dont' understand that they can make a difference with little things. They are just overwhelmed, but it's no excuse really.
