Try and convince Herr Harpo that science may not be all bad, and if a species goes extinct due to environmental ****-ups - it's gone!! Extinct means it won't be back. That includes us..

"God" will not intervene

Does that include drones and parasites?

it says blessed are the meek (not meek Christians) for they'll inherit this mess.

best then try to leave it as you'd want it left to you.

i.e., get together will people of any faith or lack thereof and say no to nukes.

Go to a local park, green space, or playground, and simply pick up trash to start.

Organize a group of like minded friends, contact your local municipality, or Natural resources office, and see if there are areas where you can plant trees, or help in any way, the rehabilitation thereof.

Move to oilberta and work in the tarsands.
The new member asked what to do in regards to preservation and restoration, not degradation and contamination.

Those aren't religious issues, I don't see the point of the question. Christians have the same options for action anyone else does, there's nothing specifically Christian or un-Christian about any of them as far as I can tell. Simply let your Christian values--faith, hope, charity, other good things like that--inform your choices, as they should every other choice you make, and do what seems right and good and needful to you.

..and pass the ammunition!

There are some Christian fundies who believe nature is the domain of Satan, so they feel it is their duty to destroy it and remake it in their version of god's image. I'm wondering if that is where he/she is coming from.

That is true. I think that they are also the ones that say the Earth was inhabited before the Genesis. Therefore everything outside the 'Garden' is not of God's making and should be destroyed. Although, it doesn't say anywhere that they should, or are asked to. Unless there is some obscure scripture, that wasn't printed, that states they should. Which isn't far out of reach.

There are soooo many secrets. Empathy would be a great thing to have, wouldn't it.
