Richard Cizik: Environmental Warrior Or Big Pussy?
In January, Richard Cizik, the vice president for governmental affairs for the National Association of Evangelicals, refused to sign the Evangelical Climate Initiative since he was unwilling to confirm the possibility of climate change. Instead, the NAE sent out a press release saying that there is a "lack of consensus among the evangelical community on this issue." Cizik also refuses to partner with environmental groups such as the Sierra Club and the National Wildlife Federation, since they are secular. Furthermore, Cizik obstinately calls his environmental activism "creation care" to differentiate himself from those other godless pagans working to fix the environment. Nevertheless, here's yet another glowing article about his environmental activism.
