Ah, what groundtruthing in detail so ofen tells us about real behavior. Have you/are you considering writing on this for the Oracle? I hope so.<br /><br />I have daily experience with recycling (volunteer) and I'm frustrated/disappointed by how much is put in "garbage" and how much is placed in the great bin and smaller bins. I do a fair amount of rinsing containers before I take them outside where they belong. It is such a short walk from opening packages and disposing of containers to the bins. Most of the time I keep myself "glop" free! And I also find stuff that is in the wrong place. <br /><br />Your entry reminded me of the Marlboro College Environmental Studies program. Marlboro has a strong commitment to being a sustainable campus. Their majors in ES (and others, too, I assume) have a chance to take a course during their program on how well the campus is doing. Here is the syllabus description:<br /><br />HOW ENVIRONMENTALLY SUSTAINABLE IS MARLBORO COLLEGE? (NSC593)<br />In our Environmental Mission Statement we commit to “using energy efficiently and resources wisely.” Do we? How do we know? In this course we critically compare different methods of assessing environmental impact and dig into the data to evaluate our performance. Through a combination of guest speakers and hands-on activities we range across many topics within sustainability at every level of the Marlboro community. These topics include energy, waste, food, transport, forestry and greenhouse gas emissions. Prerequisite: None Introductory | Credits: 3<br /><br />Thanks for such a thorough and thoughtful analysis. Is their hope for us? Sometimes I really wonder.<br /><br />Cheers.<br /><br />Edward Hesslerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15096515124796828729noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4104302419913454879.post-82740784540842301732016-07-11T03:33:23.576-05:002016-07-11T03:33:23.576-05:00nice postnice postAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18386630377590600133noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4104302419913454879.post-84712497362632095692016-04-25T03:33:00.912-05:002016-04-25T03:33:00.912-05:00Reading your article was a great experience.

BY STEVE FINNELL
...WHO CONTROLS CLIMATE GOD OR MAN? BY STEVE FINNELL<br /><br />Can man control the earth's climate, or is God in control of the weather? Do man-made carbon dioxide emission control the climate of the earth or does God control the weather? Who created the weather, man or God?<br /><br />Genesis 7:4 "For after seven more days I will cause it to rain on the earth forty days and forty nights, and I will destroy from the face of the earth all living things that I have made."(NKJV)<br /><br />Question: Did man-made CO2 emissions cause it to rain forty days and forty nights, and destroy everything but what was on the ark with Noah?<br /><br />Matthew 8:24-27......26 But He said to them, "Why are you fearful, O you of little faith? Then He arose and rebuked the winds and the sea. And there was great calm.........(NKJV)<br /><br />Questions: Did man-made CO2 emissions cause the storm. Did man calm the storm by controlling their carbon footprint?<br /><br />Job 37 1:24.... 6 For He says to the snow, 'Be on the earth': Likewise to the gentle rain and heavy rain of His strength......(NKJV)<br /><br />Question: Do men have the ability to control the climate by controlling man-made CO2 emissions?<br /><br />Psalm 135:6-7 Whatever the Lord pleases He does, In heaven and on earth, In the seas and in all deep places. 7 He causes the vapors to ascend from the ends of the earth; He makes lightning for the rain; He brings the wind out of His treasuries.(NKJV)<br /><br />Question: Can men control the climate by controlling man-made CO2 emissions?<br /><br />Who is in control of the climate, God in heaven or puny men on earth?<br /><br />[NOTE: Carbon dioxide is not a pollutant; neither is oxygen nor water. CO2, O, and H2O are necessary to sustain life.]<br /><br />you are invited to follow my blog. http://steve-finnell.blogspot.com <br /><br /> YOU ARE INVITED TO FOLLOW MY BLOG.
