Posted by CamdenKiwi in : Environment , trackbackWelcome to the 70th Carnival of the Green. Last week we were over at The Good Life and next week, on Sludgie. If you’d like to know more about the Carnival, how to host, and how to post, Treehugger explains all. There are a fair few posts this week, so go get a cup of coffee, sit back, and enjoy the ride!

The Evanagelical Ecologist and his son waded in the headwaters of the Old Testament book of Exodus this week, and read the account of Moses and the plagues, and were struck by how tightly the fate of creation is bound to the fates of Egypt and Israel and the decisions of God and Pharaoh. Why, for instance, would God not only kill the firstborn of the Egyptians, but their firstborn camels too?
