DESTRUCTION OF ECOSYSTEM
Agony of poor for water, land and sanitation
Enables to him without dignity
Because resources are owned but by few hands
Threat of life from nuclear, chemical biological weapon
From genetic manipulation to modification and cloning
Where’s the splendor of water fall
Colors of toucans
Sacred white snows
Sound of wind on the mountains
Blessings of corn and wheat
Charms of the double helix
And awe of constellations and galaxies

ECOLOGICAL CHALLENGES
Are complex signs of the time?
They touch important life and death issues
Not only of human beings but for the planet as a whole
There are complex, multifaceted dangerous changes taking place
Often beyond our common understanding and out of control
It’s a huge social impact, to physically alter face of earth
A solution lies not only in scientific technology
Or economical, political and military means
But a new way of life, a new spiritual attitudes
A new responsibility and hope of accountability
All will pay the price
Poor and downtrodden and the rich
From diseases, displacement, global warming and climate change
Philosophy of growth promote standards of living
ga consumers
Promise better access of heath education and reality
Earth spirituality, green movement, sustainable development

If we don’t’ attain environmental stable society soon
Environmental destruction and economic decline will boon
It will result into downward spiral of social disintegration
Planetary health is a huge threat
It has religious and scientific dimension
To safeguard and cherish the environment
This envi- concern challenges us Christians
Our belief
Our comfortable life style
Our conflicts between demands of poor and of nature
To strive to safeguard the integrity of creation
And sustain and renew the life of the earth
If we really desire to pass on the earth in good shape tour children
Then why do we not act on this desire!
Be committed to life in loving relationship
Confront the conflict of exploitation of people. Earth and resources
Explore alternatives lifestyle for marginalized and poor
Challenge, empower people to discern god’s evolutionary place for universe
