The Good News

Today on Swedish broadcast there was a part of a programme that highlighted the possibilities to sequestrate CO2 from bio-energy and in that way use energy in a way that it takes the carbon out of the atmosphere. It is more than carbon neutral. It is carbon negative.
Another small scale alternative that is very interesting is the charcoal stove that reduce the impact of deforestation related to use wood for cooking, improve health for women and children in poor districts of the world, captures coal out of the atmosphere and fertilize the earth.
I guess that we need all this good alternative to start the transformation from a fossil based society to a more just and sustainable world.
In the perspective of the poor and vulnerable, that should always be the perspective of faith communities, this is good news and we need to tell the decision makers that there are possibilities to change and the time is now!
