Still not a word about climate change.

If anyone knows of major Jewish organizations that responded differently, post them here!

What is good for the Jews must be the survival of the planet, otherwise none of us survive. One thing we share with every other human being who walks this Earth or ever did or ever will is the Earth itself. It belongs to all of us, and the survival of each and every one of us is dependent on it. And yet, it is so much more for us. Let us feel it and hear it and see it and touch it and know it, that we may understand that it is suffering and that our hearts may be opened to each do what we can to help it. This issue is bigger than any one faith or culture. It is about all of us. May we find the courage and the wisdom we need to save our planet. Thank you again to those who made a difference on this issue.
