A Mary T. Hoffman Commentary from All-Creatures.org

 

"Joyful Curmudgeon" An oxymoron?
No! I see all the beauty of God's creation and I'm joyful.  At the same time, I see all the suffering and corruption going on in the world, and feel called to help expose and end it so that we may have true peace and compassion.

Global Warming – 10 April 2007
By Mary T. Hoffman

Seems like everywhere you turn nowadays, you’re confronted with talk about “global warming.” It’s a “hot topic”!

It’s interesting that they never even mentioned the United Nations study which confirms the very serious and rapidly growing damage to the environment posed by the booming world-wide farmed animal industry: the greenhouse gas emissions; the depletion and contamination of water, not only from animal wastes, but also from antibiotics and hormones, tannery chemicals, and pesticides used in growing feed crops. Instead, they mentioned things like changing the type of light bulbs used.

And what was the one suggested change that the reporter said he would implement? Change the type of light bulbs he uses!
