IPCC Report - Climate Change 2014: Impacts, Adaptation, and Vulnerability

If any of you visited the BBC news home page today, you would have seen the headline "Climate inaction to be 'catastrophe'" (http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-26824943).  The headline is quoting John Kerry, who was responding to a report released by the IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change).  While I've yet to even read the short form of the report (http://ipcc-wg2.gov/AR5/images/uploads/IPCC_WG2AR5_SPM_Approved.pdf), a brief skim and the summary provided by the BBC make for sobering reading.  
We can read this and despair, or we can read and take action.  We need to ask what Christians should be doing about this and what part we can play.  It might seem like too big a problem, but we can begin to make steps, and we have a powerful God!
