Actually, I'm avoiding the usual evangelical publishers, mostly because
those books focus on individuals or families rather than on wider-scale
issues. I've looked at some of the big sellers, and climate isn't a blip on
their radar.
On the other hand, I'm looking for traditional religious connections rather
than new or speculative religions (e.g. Octavia Butler). So Muslim, Jewish,
Hindu, etc.
