Ask not what our Earth can do for you,
Ask what you can do for our Earth.

"We have made some progress in slowing climate change, but billion-dollar weather extremes are increasing from 3 in 1980 to 27. In fire- and flood-prone areas, many homeowners cannot afford insurance if it’s available.

Some may remember waiting in line for hours to fill their gasoline tanks during the 1974 oil shortage. Gas prices increased from $.30 per gallon to over $1.00. Did anyone realize we had to toil against oil? In 1988, climate scientist Dr. James Hansen testified to Congress that burning fossil fuels are warming our planet. We must toil so we won't boil.

Starting in 2011, I debated climate critics. Then Emily Austin, Karl Peters, and I organized The Wicked Problem of Climate Changeconference. We discussed the book Drawdown’s100 Ways of Reversing Global Warming. A plant-rich diet is number three. Twelve conference papers were published in Zygon: Journal of Religion and Science (July 2018).

A 50-Year Perspective:
enabling economics,
new technology, &
caring theology
can save ecology.

The Inflation Reduction and Climate Act of 2022 has economic incentives for new green technology to save the ecology that feeds us. Free solar energy from heaven is more economical than oil from hell.

May my presentations and papers increase your understanding and inspire you to act now to save life on our beautiful blue planet. In 2022, climate scientist Katharine Hayhoe published Saving Us. Our Earth will survive, will we?"
