All Saints Church News

Dear Friends,

I really hope by the time your reading this that we have

had some dry warm days. It's been a long winter. On the

plus side it's meant our favourite topic the weather has

been discussed more than ever. Everyday walking my dog

I've had ‘weather chats’, It's a good ice breaker, nothing

offensive or controversial. Most of us agree that the

climate is changing and there the chattering ends. But

maybe it should go on?

What's causing climate change? How can we help

preserve our beautiful planet? Nuclear Power? Solar

power? Hydro-electric? Tidal power in the Bristol Channel?

The tidal range of the Bristol channel is 2nd only in the world

to Burncoat Head in the Bay of Fundy in Eastern Canada.

It seems we all see the need for something to be done,

but NOT in my back garden. Sooner or later it's going to

have to be in our back gardens, otherwise God's beautiful

world will disappear and our children and grandchildren

and every generation to follow will live in a very different

world.

Each one of us is responsible, not one of us is excluded

from this responsibility.

Enjoy spring and imagine if it were not to happen.

God’s Blessing on each and every one of you.

Revd Susie Parsons

Assistant Curate Polden Wheel
