"You shall not pollute the land in which you live... you shall not defile the land in which you live, in which I also dwell."
Numbers 35:33-34

Biblical quotations found on  belief.net

"But ask the animals, and they will teach you; the birds of the air, and they will tell you; ask the plants of the earth, and they will teach you; and the fish of the sea will declare to you. Who among all these does not know that the hand of the Lord has done this? In his hand is the life of every living thing and the breath of every human being."
Job 12:7-10

  Today is Easter Monday here in the Turks and Caicos Islands.  Many faiths throughout the country have been celebrating for the last several days; at church, at home, on the beach, and on the water!  I only wish we had a fraction of the enthusiasm for earth day as we do for Easter because both are more connected than one may realise.  I like to think that faith goes hand in hand with environmentalism; taking care of the great gifts we have been given.  Green Faith does too, please visit their website to learn more about how faith and protecting our planet are interconnected.  Please click here to read more green biblical verses.
