ISNA AND SECRETARY VILSACK


Secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilsack applauded efforts initiated by Ohio Interfaith and Ligh (OhioIPL) to inform and educate communities on energy conservation as a faith-based moral obligation. Dr.C.Azeez Haque, in the Advisory Board of OhIPL, also represented the Noor Islamic Cultural Center of  Columbus and  the Islamic Society of North America, Interfaith Division.  One effort at the meeting with a very large group of senior citizens living in an assisted- home apartment complex was to distribute energy saving electric bulbs to replace existing bulbs, to considerably reduce energy consumption, at a much lower cost and, lasting for over 5 years. Secretary Vilsack and others were impressed with Islamic values that emphazise reverance to nature, avoidance of waste and nurturing of God's creation.
