Creation care is of growing concern for Evangelicals

Caring about God’s creation and caring about God’s people is entirely consistent with caring for your neighbor.

Religious conservatives have become increasingly aware of the treat of climate change and are supporting efforts by the Environmental Pollution Agency to restrict greenhouse gas emissions. (Religious Conservatives Embrace Proposed E.P.A. Rules).

Tips for burning wood

It is that wood burning time of year once again.  If you're going to make a fire there are a few important things that can be done to reduce pollutants.  First, burn dry, well seasoned wood only.  Secondly, if possible use an EPA certified wood burning stove.  They can be up to 70 more efficient than older models. Lastly, don't let your fire smolder.  Monitor the flue so that it burns as hot and clean as possible.
