"Now is the time to confront this challenge once and for all. Delay is no longer an option. Denial is no longer an acceptable response."But does God have a better plan?
(Barack Obama)
Earth is on the brink. Global warming, climate change, environmental disaster looming. Human catastrophe beckons. Then suddenly something weird happens in energy-guzzling America. It forces people to alter their way of life. Maybe the world will follow suit. Maybe the planet will be saved.
Who's behind this? None other than the Lord God Almighty. stepping in to rescue mankind. And He - or rather, his loyal but unpredictable and somewhat grumpy aide, the archangel Gabriel - enlists the support of the maverick and unique US President. Just a pity Gabriel - "Do I have to Boss? They're all cretins" - couldn't be a bit more enthusiastic. Still, give him his head, if that's what it takes.
But will the plan work? Criminals, religious fundamentalists, corporate corruption. Then US presidential election year. Choices to be made. And more wild cards: China, Britain, Spain, Africa.
"Who'd be God?" muses the Almighty. "Yes, Guv," mutters Gabriel.
