Caring For Creation: Hope In Difficult Times

In substantial measure, the American experience is the story of environmental destruction and degradation: deforestation, annihilation of species, contamination of surface and ground water, and much more. At the same time, the American experience is also the story of triumph: the preservation fo threatened and endangered species such as American bison and bald eagles, new farming methods that reduce environmental impact, and impressive gains in recycling. While much remains to be done in these and other areas, this progress is cause for optimism about the future. Today we face new challenges, among them climate change, which, if not slowed down, will have devastating consequences. Yet Caring for Creation argues that as we look at the progress previously made, we may embrace the future with hope. The author contends that if we live our lives in ways conductive to the well-being of the biotic communities that sustain life and support candidates for public office and organizations committed to environmental protection, our children and grandchildren will have the opportunity to experience the goodness of a flourishing creation--back cover.
