Is Linking Climate to Faith the Key?

The key to getting a handle on the overwhelming problem of climate change is to frame it as a moral issue, according to a story in the Tennesean by Ray Waddle.
He quotes a local activist, Joyce Wilding, who says, "If (climate change) doubters who go to houses of worship will recognize this as a moral issue, then we have a chance." Later he quotes her as saying, "I want to hear more sermons on this. Every seminarian ought to be trained to talk 15 minutes on moral issues of environmental degradation and not be afraid."
