THE CONCERN TO YOUNG CHRISTIANS
Young Christians should be especially concerned about this issue for 2 reasons, both of which are interlinked. The first reason is that in which was explained in the “The Impact on Religion” section of this website. Destruction of God’s creation. As explained, one of God’s finest creations is Earth itself and the world as a whole, made to glorify himself and reflect his sacrifices and efforts. However, this is all abolished through the recurring issue of Greenhouse Gasses. As we continue to selfishly use the resources of the Earth, we create these inconspicuously lethal gases in which destroy the Ozone Layer, causing climate change and although this will occur millennia from now, will lead to the inevitable charring of our world and the death of all wildlife through infrared radiation.
This is something that should concern Young Christians to an extreme extent as we selfishly destroy one of God’s most preciously beautiful creations none to man. The second reason is as already mentioned. Selfishness and Greed. Greenhouse Gases aren’t just destroying the Earth but they are doing so out of greed and egotistical nature of humans. We have become ever so reliant on these resources as we become more and more advanced technologically and overpopulate rapidly, leaving us with a constant need for electricity and fossil fuels, the main contributors to Greenhouse Gas Emissions.

However, instead of cutting back on the use of these materials, we simply continue our selfish ways and destroy the Earth in an attempt to feed the endless hunger that we have created. Young Christians should be concerned because the world is not only coming to a slow, painful end due to these lethal gasses, but it is doing so due to one of the most frowned upon attributes of mankind. Greed.
