[asa] Other Christian Perspectives on Global Warming

In the recent discussion on warming, the competing Evangelical statements on
global warming were mentioned. Can anyone point me to other official /
substantial statement on warming from other Christian perspectives? It
would be an interesting article to do a topography of different responses.
Maybe someone has done this already.

Here are two notable ones I found:

U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops --
http://www.usccb.org/sdwp/international/globalclimate.htm
Answers in Genesis -- http://www.answersingenesis.org/docs2005/0908ct.asp

The U.S. Catholic Bishops' statement I think has some good aspects,
particularly a focus on virtue ethics and a warning about links between
warming policies and population control policies, though I think it is too
solicitous of Kyoto and lacks emphasis on other key Catholic social
principles such as subsidiarity. Does anyone know whether the Vatican has
issued any statements?

The AIG statement is interesting because it raises the "uniformitarian"
flag.
