The world is moving towards a green economy. The United States is being left behind. If we do not catch up, the United States will not be able to compete in the world economy.
When I talk to people about global warming, some are still unconvinced of the science. I’ve stopped trying to argue the science. [...]

When people wonder why there is such a “controversy” over global warming science, it pays to follow the money. The coal, oil, and transportation industries stand to lose billions of dollars if the United States gets serious. Of course, these billions of dollars won’t be lost from the U.S. economy. Rather, companies and industries that [...]
Leaping Another Hurdle
March 29, 2010 – 11:50 pm
For the past two weeks, I’ve been drafting a book proposal and a two sample chapters for a book I’m writing: Jesus Wants US to Stop Global Warming. The book expands upon many of the ideas I discuss on this blog.
My goal was to send out a package an agent or publisher would immediately recognize [...]
Easy Target: The Oregon Petition
March 16, 2010 – 3:43 pm
I read a lot of books written by climate deniers. It’s useful to understand their arguments, half-truths, and lies. In one such book, there was a claim that 30,000 scientists had signed a petition claiming global warming wasn’t really happening. So, I went to the footnotes and checked the source. I [...]
Air Pollution Costs CA $193 Million

Global warming solutions make sense for reasons far beyond the effects of global warming. For over a year, the nation has been debating heath care reform. Global warming solutions are almost never included in the health care debate, but they should be. Implementing global warming solutions will lower health care costs and put money back [...]
Sen. Graham has the Right Idea
March 1, 2010 – 7:22 pm
It’s unavoidable: Republicans are currently against the United States taking action against global warming. It’s as simple as that.
No matter what your political ideology, global warming action makes sense for America. Solutions to global warming will create jobs, foster economic growth, increase energy independence, and improve national security. And, the vast [...]
Welcome Facebook Friends…

Friends,
As you can see, I’ve started my own website and blog. As the name hopefully implies, JesusConserves.org explores global warming from a Christian perspective. Please take a moment and take a look around.
Part of the reason I began this site is to promote a book I’ve been writing. Like JesusConserves.org, the book [...]
The UN fires back at Skeptics
February 24, 2010 – 1:46 pm
The global warming “debate” is heating up once again…
In the last few months, the 2007 report by United Nations’ Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change has come under attack. In a nutshell, the IPCC report found that global warming is real, caused by human greenhouse gas emissions, and will have disastrous effects around the world if [...]
Lent Carbon Fast (Days 1 – 6)
February 22, 2010 – 2:40 pm
The flowing entry describes some of the steps I’m taking to participate in the Carbon Fast for Lent.
1. Coffee Mug at Work.
I’d been meaning to bring a ceramic coffee mug to work for a while. I usually drink my morning coffee out of a large travel mug. A couple days a week, I either drink my [...]
Lent and the Carbon Fast
February 18, 2010 – 6:00 pm
I’ve been thinking about Lent and why people “give things up for Lent.”
Immediately before beginning his ministry, Jesus wandered in the desert. For forty days and nights, He fasted. In the desert, He endured and resisted repeated temptation by the devil. First, the devil tempted Jesus to turn stones into bread. Next, the devil tempted [...]
