Global Warming

If you are interested in the issue of global warming, read this article by Regis Nicoll, "Some Inconvenient Truths: Global Warming and Al Gore's Film." If you have seen Al Gore’s docudrama An Inconvenient Truth, then you should interact with the points made by Nicoll.

As Christians we have been given stewardship of this planet and God expects us to use it wisely. We need to find a balance between worshiping nature and abusing nature. We have a responsibility to reduce pollution and save endangered species. However, we also must be wise and not allow ourselves to be manipulated or driven by hysteria.

Here is Regis Nicoll’s conclusion:

“Having said all this, let me add that I agree with many of the recommendations in An Inconvenient Truth. Recycling more, driving less, adjusting our thermostats, reducing consumables, planting trees, and the like, are the right things to do. All are in keeping with biblical stewardship, regardless of global warming.”
