This new involvement may be defined as a response to something individuals perceive as unknown but resulting in a dramatic effect. Institutions like religious organizations are simply playing on the collective feelings around the issue of climate change. I expect more institutions beyond environmentalists and religious personnel to take action… look at the change in the business of selling fuel efficient cars.
