“Keep Sunday And Save The Planet”
I think most of us knew this argument was coming. We have heard about the spiritual, social, cultural and economical, reasons to enforce Sunday keeping laws, now here is the environmental argument.

Slow Sunday: The simple solution to global warming- Satish Kumar
“Not long ago Sunday used to be a day of rest, a day of spiritual renewal, a day for families to come together, but we have changed Sunday from a day of rest to a day of shopping, flying and driving. However, in the context of excessive carbon dioxide emissions into the atmosphere, which are bringing catastrophic upheavals, we can and should restore Sunday to a day for Gaia, a day for the Earth….”
The Pope has already stated he supports this additional reason for keeping Sunday.
