Wake Up and Smell the Progress
Horray for Renstrom and Perkowitz for recognizing that there have been significant gains in changing bussiness and reliouis leaders perspective toward the environment. Its definately a step forward that we need to acknowledge loudly.
For those of you who keep on complaining of trust, remeber that trust is a two way street. We have to have faith that we can and are able to achieve change. We have to start somewhere.
That Pat Robertson is even publically acknowleging global warming is a great leap forward. Face it, most social change in America has always been driven by the word from the pulpit. The American Revolution, slavery, voters rights, even the end of the Vietnam War, were all fueled by religious leaders taking the initiative. Considering that only 40% of Americans believe in evolution, organized religion is a key player for any social change. And face it, that is what we are really asking for.
