The only kind of evangelicals i can get behind ^
A man-bites-dog story.
However, [the cited Pew study](https://www.pewresearch.org/religion/2022/11/17/religious-beliefs-about-earth-and-the-environment/) also shows that, as a group, evangelicals are the Christians least likely to follow through on their desire for climate solutions. While generally somewhat concerned about climate, they are the slowest to reduce driving, meat intake etc..
I’m part of an Episcopal church and am newly participating in our Creation Care Ministry, a large portion of which is trying to solarize as much of the local area as possible, starting with fellow parishioners.
Honestly, not sure how one can claim to love God and NOT be concerned about helping the environment.
uh ok, whatever works i guess. I still think the world would be better off without evangelicals
