Global Warming and the Environment

Recently evangelicals have become the surprise proponents of policies promoting care for creation, including halting global warming. Though by no means are evangelicals of one mind on the subject, stewardship of God's creation is a Biblical principle most evangelicals agree on. Below, we have collected Christianity Today's coverage of climate change and creation care.
