It's a Start
This morning I attended a virtual meeting of a church Creation Care committee. The meeting went well, and there was healthy conversation. But the discussion was all to do with climate change ― what it is, what its impact may be, and what we should do in response.
If we are to take care of creation in all its forms (which is, after all, the title of the committee) then we need to think beyond climate change. The following sketch, that was published at the reddit/collapse site, shows the many, many other aspects of creation that we can should consider.
The sketch is useful, but it has two limitations. First, it should be structured as a Cause and Effect chart. Second, it does not show any feedback or feedforward loops.
The sketch shows a complicated system, but the Age of Limits, of which climate change is just one part, is complex. (See our post that describes the differences between the two words.)
