http://www.walk4theplanet.org.nz/blog Expressing concern for the well-being of planet Earth Fri, 18 Dec 2009 22:20:38 +1300 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.6 hourly 1 http://www.walk4theplanet.org.nz/blog/?p=1&cpage=1#comment-2 Mark Fri, 18 Dec 2009 22:20:38 +0000 http://www.walk4theplanet.org.nz/blog/?p=1#comment-2 Kia ora, Welcome to this blog. Please do share your thoughts as to how we can continue the "Walk after the Walk". As I write this the Climate Change Summit is on its last frenzied day as the leaders of the world try or try not to come up with an agreement that might reduce the impact of human acitivity on the Earth's atmosphere. The only thing that will move us forward on this as a planetary community is pressure from grassroots communities. Our leaders from the west have clay feet as they fearfully look over their shoulders at what powerful business lobbies threaten if the balance of power is upset. Each one of us needs to make the changes in our own lives that will inspire others to do the same. This will create a momentum that politicians will hitch on to. Our collective prayer needs to be body and spirit moving in unity to transform the earth. What changes are you making? How far might we need to take our willingness to act for the earth and future generations? How does the one whose birth we celebrate during the next week inspire us? God loves the earth, in what way are we? Arohanui, Mark Kia ora, Welcome to this blog. Please do share your thoughts as to how we can continue the “Walk after the Walk”.
