Why Christians Should Support Sustainable Agriculture

By Caroline D'Angelo on 07/30/2010

Everybody should support sustainable agriculture because it will help alleviate health problems, environmental pollution and help strengthen communities…but Christians have added incentive to do so, since it is a way of worship, Biblically relevant and connected to teachings of Jesus…
