blog action day

Today is Blog action day. this means that many blogs written today will be talking about climate change. I would like to pose this question? Is this another way of saying Global Warming?

I have always thought that "Saving the Planet" was ridiculous. The planet had been around for thousands of years and never seemed to be in danger of blowing up or shrinking away. So why be healthy? Why recycle?

I think what needs to be addressed is the fact that humans haven't always been on the earth. We can't live in every climate on the earth. Therefore, what we need to fix is the way we alter the climate. If we do so drastically, it will become a place that we can no longer inhabit.

There is a great more to it than that. God gave us this planet. He made us stewards of his creation. This means that we are responsible for it. Failing to do so in any way possible is a failure to our creator.

I find that there are even more evils at work here. There is a great push to go green. This is awesome because we have more natural products than ever, more recycling, and new ways reuse all kinds of products. The bigger problem is that now we are being charged heavily for wanting to use those things. Green products are more expensive than traditional ones. Us Supermoms who want what is best for our families can't afford to pay the difference! We need to flex our consumer muscles to get companies to drop prices on what could be really great products. After all, if the prices dropped, more people could afford them and buy them and wouldn't the world be a healthier more natural place for all of us.
