My new Huffington Post co-authored with my son by Theodore Andrew Lee.  So proud of his work, writing and interests.  Feel free to share and/or comment.

We often use household products without ever thinking where they come from, how they are produced, and who produces them. We live in a comfortable world where we simply go to the grocery store and buy things we need without thinking twice about their production or how they landed on our grocery store shelves. Our thoughts do not go beyond how everything is accessible, useable and available for consumption.

I am participating in the WCC’s Working Group on Climate Change in Wuppertal, Germany.  This is my latest post for The Huffington Post.

 

A great tragedy of our present time and context is the act of “profiting from destroying the earth.” Individuals and large corporations are making billions from this ecological vandalism. We are constantly taking the earth’s finite resources without replenishing or restoring them. We are wasting and using up our water, causing pollutants to enter our environment, without thinking about the consequences our actions may have on the earth. Nothing seems able to stop this destruction as long as corporations make a profit and powerful people live comfortable lives.
