Liberal-Moderate Christians Testify Against Clear Skies Act

[The Christian Post] February 2, 2005--Left-leaning Christian leaders urged members of the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee to oppose the proposed “Clear Skies Act” of 2005 during the Senate’s full committee hearing on Wednesday, February 02, 2005. The groups, lead by the National Council of Churches USA, contended the S131 bill, which would require utilities to reduce sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxide and mercury emission by 70 percent by 2018, fails to “implement policies needed to clean up our nation’s air and excludes provisions to address the threat of global warming.”

From those to whom God entrusts much, God requires much. When God gave humanity dominion over the earth, it was not to despoil the earth and to pollute its air and water. We will have to give an accounting to God for our stewardship of His creation.
