God won't protect humanity from environmental 'doomsday'

The Daily Mail, on the 26th of March 2009, reports on a talk given by an Archbishop where he warns people that God will not intervene to stop runway climate change.

God is not going to intervene to prevent humanity from wreaking disastrous damage to the environment, the Archbishop of Canterbury warned last night as he called for a 'radical change of heart' to prevent runaway climate change.

Dr Rowan Williams said there needed to be a 'conversion' by humanity away from selfishness and greed that leads us to turn a 'blind eye' to the destruction of the environment and to our interdependence with the natural world.

Without a change of heart, Dr Williams warned, the world faced a number of 'doomsday scenarios' including the 'ultimate tragedy' of humanity gradually 'choked, drowned, or starved by its own stupidity.'
