On Monday, September 28, 2015, the Austin American Statesman published a commentary article titled Moorhead: Texas needs to address poverty, pollution and polarization. I want to say that in this article, Mrs. Moorhead is trying to target young adults that can change their daily habits, who can influence others, and who can try to protect the environment, and political officials who can work within the legislature to do so. Mrs. Bee Moorhead is not a journalist but is the executive director of Texas Interfaith Center for Public Policy/Texas Impact, so she participates effectively in public policy discussions concerning issues of broad religious social concern, through non-partisan education on policy issues and training in civic participation. During Pope Francis visit to the United States, he commented on our attempts, as a nation, of bringing together the management of wealth, natural resources, and technology to build a “’modern, inclusive, sustainable’ future.” Mrs. Moorhead explains as a State we could be part of such future but we need to address some concerning issues that may delay us from such future such as: poverty, pollution, and polarization. In the article she has some compelling evidence that, “In 2014 more than 4 million Texans - more than 16 percent – lived below 100 percent of the Federal Poverty Level.” The regulation of methane gas has its effects on humans and the environment. “Methane is responsible for about 25 percent of global warming; reducing methane would also cut air pollution that cause cancer and asthma.” Plus, race and religious tensions still exist to a disturbing extent.  “According to recent UT/Texas Tribune poll, Texans are even polarized about the extent of our division” I do agree in how she sees that with these existing issues can falter the future to which may bring us closer as nation. I feel like any advancement towards a bigger and brighter future maybe based on injustice, because of our lack of attempts to help each other and the place which we live in.
