In summary, the average person can encourage the world market back to wellness by recognizing their own energy consumption and conserving resources, as well as taking responsibility for the community's poor. The destructiveness of greed in the new economy can be controlled by supporting local homeless shelters and food stations, as well as getting involved with programs for the poor through mainstream Christian churches.

The ranks of the homeless are swelling as we speak. Local homeless shelters and food stations will need help and money. I know from personal experience that mainstream Christian churches have many programs for the poor and needy, so you can check with your local church. Just ask how you can help.
