Visiting Trumplandia, Episode 3,756; Guardian Documentary On Bible-Thumpers, Global Warming
A new Guardian documentary, The Climate and the Cross, explores a battle among US evangelicals over whether climate change is real and a call to protect the Earth the work of God, and therefore to be welcomed or does not exist.
Evangelicals have traditionally been the bedrock of conservative politics in the US, including on climate change. But a heated debate is taking place across the country, with some Christians protesting in the name of protecting the Earth. One group has built a chapel in the way of a pipeline, and a radical pastor has encouraged his congregation to put themselves in the way of diggers. Meanwhile, a firm supporter of Donald Trump crisscrosses the country promoting solar power.
But there is still the traditional resistance: a climate scientist who denies that the world is warming, and a preacher in Florida who sees the fact he was flooded as a positive sign of a divine presence.
