Though it turns out it's not a 20% cut in today's usage, it's a 20% cut in the projected usage for 10 years from now. Another significant group that has begun to embrace the need to care for our planet's environment and to work to curb global warming are the evangelical Christians. Not all of them, to be sure, but the movement to protect the environment within that group is growing rapidly. Using the Bible, they reckon God made man the steward of His creations - all of them - on the planet and as such we all have an obligation to care and look after those creations, not destroy them. The greatest of those creations, from a human standpoint, is the planet Earth which, when you compare it to the other planets in our solar system, is a veritable garden of Eden floating in space. And, Evangelical or not, the worst sin of all would be to allow its destruction.
