"The Green Bible" will equip and
encourage you to see God's vision for creation and help you engage in
the work of healing and sustaining it. This first Bible of its kind
includes inspirational essays from key leaders such as N. T. Wright,
Barbara Brown Taylor, Brian McLaren, Matthew Sleeth, Pope John Paul
II, and Wendell Berry. As you read the scriptures anew, "The Green
Bible" will help you see that caring for the earth is not only a
calling, but a lifestyle.

EarthShare -
EarthShare [with timely news
updates] was founded by its member charities in 1988 to connect people to
environmental nonprofits through workplace giving, volunteer
opportunities, and environmental education.......an
update on the demise of plastic bag use
"To help reduce the land-based waste that
often contributes to the trash found in our ocean and other waterways,
many companies have stopped producing and distributing plastic bags in
their stores. Now some cities are enforcing that standard......
Plastic bags and other items like water and soda bottles are very
harmful to the environment because they’re not biodegradable. They can
leech harmful chemicals into our water sources, potentially causing
serious harm to the people and wildlife that rely on these resources.
Researchers recently
explored the Great Pacific Garbage Patch to see what kind of impact
these plastics are having on marine life."
