Surprisingly, she won’t give up her own big carbon ways
Ocasio-Cortez invokes Bible in response to White House on climate change
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y) on Wednesday responded to White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders telling her to leave climate change up to a “much higher authority†by invoking the Bible.
While not quoting specific verses, the freshman lawmaker invoked scripture in defense of her impassioned pleas to address climate change.
“Genesis 1: God looked on the world & called it good not once, not twice, but seven times.
Genesis 2: God commands all people to “serve and protect” creation.
Leviticus: God mandates that not only the people, but the land that sustains them, shall be respected.” https://t.co/AhWd3vuVBd

The lawmaker appeared to be paraphrasing a Relevant magazine article from last year titled, “Stopping Climate Change Is a Part of Following Jesus.” The article included adapted translations of specific biblical passages.
And they can do all this with a carbon tax and taking away your freedom.
Also, same people freak out over religion, well, only the Christian religion, in a public space.
