Christianity, Climate Change, and Sustainable Living
Author: Nick Spencer
Publisher: Brazos Press
ISBN: 9781587433061
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
What should Christians do to protect the Earth and its people? Amounts and patterns of consumption and production in the West have reached a level that cannot be maintained. Lifestyles based on our present way of creating and using energy are no longer environmentally sustainable--and are threatening the health and well-being of both planet and people. Our activities and the policies that shape them need to change. In light of those realities, Spencer, White, and Vroblesky offer serious Christian engagement with the emerging issue of Sustainable Consumption and Production. They analyze the scientific, sociological, economic, and theological thinking that makes a Christian response to these trends imperative and distinctive. And they offer practical conclusions that explore and explain what can be done at the personal, community, national, and international levels to ensure that next generations will have the resources necessary for life. Firmly rooted in the good news of the Christian faith, this is, above all, a constructive and hopeful book that offers a realistic vision of what the future could and should look like. This book is endorsed by A Rocha: Christians in Conservation, The Jubliee Centre, The Faraday Institute for Science and Religion, and The Au Sable Institute of Environmental Studies.

Look Up to See What the Weather Will Be
Author: Guy Brown
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781938492426
Category : Juvenile Nonfiction
Languages : en
Pages : 54
Book Description
Should we bring raincoats to the big game? Will the fog lift before we get to the coast? Should we let in the animals in case there is a tornado this afternoon? People love talking about the weather, but it is more than just conversation. Weather can change rapidly and produce suddenly hazardous conditions. Studying data from satellites, radar, and other technology helps us prepare and stay safe. Animals, on the other hand, also need to predict the weather. They rely on their senses to know what to expect so they can stay warm in a blizzard, remain cool in a heat wave, or find food in a fog bank. Hours before we wake up, weather anchor Guy Brownis at the TV studio reviewing atmospheric readings, humidly rates, and Doppler reports. He needs to tell his viewers how to plan for the days ahead. He also introduces some of the animals who forecast weather in environments around the world. With Mario Lugo's vivid art, readers see some of the amazing clouds that bring us wildly different weather and learn how animals use their adaptations to weather the storms. Guy acquaints readers with cloud identification techniques while sharing a glimpse into survival--in town and in the wild.
