Is climate change a moral issue? What would God say? - Green House - USATODAY.com: "'To cultivate peace, one must protect creation!'

He added:
The protection of creation is not principally a response to an aesthetic need, but much more to a moral need, inasmuch as nature expresses a plan of love and truth which is prior to us and which comes from God."
