Stuff You Should Know

One of my very favorite podcasts these days is "Stuff You Should Know" from howstuffworks.com.

One of the episodes that popped up last week, was "Recycling and the Great Pacific Garbage Patch".

Its a great addendum to last Sunday's message, The Man God Creates, and our creation care responsibility. In it, the hosts discuss the Pacific Gyres and the swirling garbage collections as big as the size of Texas.

I'd never heard of this before. You've got to hear it to believe it, and then click over and read the Wikipedia entry. Sad and disgusting . . .

I'm turning into such a tree-hugger!

Based on your sermon Sunday, I can't see any other choice but that Christians should be the biggest environmentalists in the world! Although, sustainability seems more biblical than the main-stream environmental movement which tends towards idolatry...hardly in line with our role of being created to rule and take dominion.
