Pope Issues Plea for the Earth at First-Ever 'Green' Youth Rally
Yesterday, The Catholic Church's first eco-friendly youth rally featured a plea from Pope Benedict for humans to make "courageous choices" that will help save the earth "before it is too late."
The rally, held in Italy, lasted through the weekend and attracted nearly half a million attendees. Usually a crowd of that size would create a huge amount of environmentally unfriendly garbage, but not so in this case. Participants were issued kits including a recyclable backpack and color-coded trash bags to organize personal recyclables, and meals were served on biodegradable plates.
Comments
The European Parliament recently denounced Israel for being a distraction on our war on global warming. Israel's provocations and oppression of the Muslims and wars for Israel were cited. The Europeans are much more advanced than we are when it comes to fighting global warming and political perceptiveness.
