More Thoughts for Earth Week

Whether on a balcony, or a half-acre lot in a subdivision, or a small family farm, or a thousand-acre farm, people everywhere can contribute to preserving our earth. Just start right where you are now. Clean up your corner of the world. Pick up trash even if it's not yours. Plant a few flowers. Collect and use rainwater to water those flowers. Create a compost bin. Plant a tree. Grow your own vegetables and herbs. Enjoy, appreciate, and protect God's green earth. It's the only one we have.

And the LORD God took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it; to tend and watch over it; to take care of it; to cultivate it; to till it; to guard it; to work the ground and keep it in order. (Genesis 2:15)
