SUGGESTION: A NEW LENTEN FAST
The time of Lent is a time for fasting accompanied by
prayer and meditation. As we address the problem of climate change,
we may consider “fasting from carbon” by using less energy,
personally, as families and as organizations.
We can discern the negative impacts on global warming and
God’s creation and ways to eliminate harmful practices.
Some practical ways to fast from carbon might be:
- Change at least one light bulb to long-lasting
bulbs.
- Carry a cloth bag to the grocery store, don’t use
plastic
- Be aware of using less water in showers, washers,
etc.
- Use as little hot water as possible.
- Avoid drinking from commercial water bottles
- Plan for “greening” your property with a new tree
or bush.
