"Dear Mother Earth, who
day by day
Unfold her blessings on our way,
O praise Him! Alleluia!
The flowers and fruits that in thee grow,
Let them His glory also show.
O praise Him! Alleluia!
Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!"
- St. Francis of Assisi
Patron of the Environment

Observations
"The entire psychology
of this country has to change. Americans are extremely wasteful of everything --- land, resources etc. We live in a throw
away society.
I remember when I lived in the San Francisco Bay Area --- naturally a beautiful area. I saw increasingly in my 10 years there
the sprawl and human arrogance over land that was beginning to change it forever. I remember being stuck in a traffic jam
on a 12 lane freeway, cars belching fumes as far as the eye could see, surrounded by neighborhoods that had already been discarded
for even newer subdivisions further out and thought my God - whats gone wrong?
Until we realize that our world is not limitless and forever forgiving of man's mistakes, we are doomed to live in an increasingly
congested, polluted world."
JM, Washington D.C.
"The beauty of the all electric car is that it is absolutely silent in a traffic jam. Silent in sound, silent in air emissions.
I wonder if it will ever occur to the public the absurdity of an engine running when it's going nowhere".
"If you turn on a high powered lamp indoors, then take to the great outdoors, isn't it amazing how that light bulb is nothing
compared to the intensity of the sun? It's like there were a zillion 1,000 watt bulbs on! Multiply that by every square
foot on earth (never mind the entire solar system.) It has been stated that a mere 30 seconds of sunshine provides enough
energy to power the entire planet for a full day. Free, abundant, 100% clean energy! How archaic is any other means of fuel?
Unfortunately, solar panels are still rather inefficient and costly. But I am sure that one day in the future, there will
be a solar panel perhaps the size of a square meter, that will 100% power your home. We probably already have the technology.
Same for ultra capacitor high density solid state batteries to power a viable electric car and a cure for AIDS. I am sure
the only reason why all of these are not a reality is due to politics, righteousness and greed."

Conservation Center
Please be green. Recycling 1 glass
bottle 
saves enough energy to run a television set for 2 hours.
Our parish contracted
with Free Lighting Corp,
a subcontractor of Con Edison, to replace dozens of our
ordinary light bulbs with CFLs,
energy efficient compact fluorescent
bulbs. This change will result in an electric bill savings of nearly 80%
wherever
this change was made. This also affords conservation
of our natural resources. You too can realize this savings in
your home.
