It is possible to ride two horses at the same time – provided that they are going in the same direction, and at the same pace.
However, it isn’t possible for us to simultaneously reduce our carbon footprint, as we agreed to at COP 21 in Paris (2015), AND enable additional “development” of Canada’s tar sands in northern Alberta. Even David Suzuki is confused about the actions of Canada’s new federal government. He wonders why we are still talking pipelines.

“The great theologian Howard Thurman makes an important distinction between the “God of Religion” and the “God of Life”. They are not always, unfortunately, the same thing, and when they are not, we have to return to the God of Life to rebegin not only religion but culture itself. I think we are living in such a time.”
