The problem

Two church members are talking. One says to the other, "Sometimes I'd like to ask God why He lets people harm his world and his creatures when He could just do something about it."

"God's always listening. Why don't you just ask?"

"I'm afraid God might ask me why I'm not doing something about it."

God has no "Plan B". He's counting on us!

Treasure trove of environment books

I have discovered over 4,000 books about conserving the environment that you can order at a discount. Where, you ask? Better World Books.

Their "Outdoors & Nature/Environment/Conservation" category currently lists 4,418 books. Most are presumably used books at a nice discount. But the company stocks new ones as well. "The Green Festival Reader" was showing as a Better World Books staff person's pick this week. That actually started me poking around and finding the environment conservation category.

Disclaimer: One of my kids works at Better World Books, which is how I came to be searching their web site. I like the company's philosophy. Better World Books' tag line is "The Online Bookstore with a Soul".
