    I have long been non-user of plastic straws, recycling paper, plastic, glass, cans on weekly basis; as retired clergy still do most of any work I have to do preparing for supply preaching/teaching at home; my cars average around 33 miles gallon around town and more on longer trips.  In church I am part of the Green Chalice program and each month during Children's Word we do "Green Chalice" presentation;  Our church has banned all styrofoam for all users of facility, and encourage non-use one-time plastic ware/dinnerwear.  Also offered prayers for 21 youth who have sued Federal Government for not doing anything about climate change, and encouraged voters to vote for environmentally conscious politicians.
