People of faith are not all politicaly right - and there is both Christian left and right. Many of the "churched" already believe in conservation and nuturing (stewardship) of the earth and its creatures. BTW, there is a good letter to the editor in today's TC.

Re: "A climatologist, not just a skeptic," Sept. 21.
Tim Ball takes issue with an earlier description of him as a climate change "skeptic," claiming instead that he is a "climatologist" fully conversant with "the absolute latest in modern science."
Yet the record shows that since his retirement as a University of Winnipeg geography professor in 1996, Ball has aligned himself with oil-industry front groups (Friends of Science, Envirotruth) and traded on a very light resume to sustain his busy calendar as a speaker and lobbyist against the Kyoto accord.
If the Victoria Conservative party is truly interested in a scientific briefing on climate change, they should call the University of Victoria and ask for any of a host of world-class experts -- people who have conducted original research and published substantive papers in peer-reviewed journals during the past decade. (Victoria boasts four scientists who are leading authors of the coming report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change.)
If the Tories just want an entertaining hour of cranky climate change skepticism, Tim Ball is the perfect choice.
