IN the NEWS - Mexico and "Sunday" for Mother Earth

And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: 
Revelation 13:4

Green Drumbeat for Mandated Sunday Rest.....
"Thanks to the climate crisis, Sunday laws are practically writing themselves. Here we see a Sunday rest city ordinance with teeth. Prophecy calls this speaking like a dragon.
On February 25, 2024, a mandatory car-free Sunday with penalties was enforced on everyone in Mexico City. In an article published by Medio Tiempo News titled “Even on Sunday! What cars are resting TODAY, February 25, due to environmental contingency in Mexico City,” the city’s air pollution problem is being addressed by ordering nearly all of the cars to take a break on Sunday. This city ordinance, which came with a hefty fine to enforce compliance, would save energy, lower consumption, and limit pollution.

The article stated, in part:
At what times does “No Travel Today” apply? Generally, the “No
Travel Today” program has an extension of hours between 5:00 a.m. and 10:00 p.m., covering most of the day; However, this
Sunday it was announced that it would operate from 5:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., so after that time, all vehicles can return to operating normally.......“Taxis with verification hologram “00”, “0”, “1” or “2” that must stop circulating in accordance with the provisions indicated in sections 1, 2, and 3, will be subject to the restriction on circulation from 10:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m
.”

A $3,257 fine in Mexican pesos comes to around $190 US dollars,
which is a lot of money for people who don’t make much. Residents of
Mexico City were being warned not to drive on Sunday due to environmental regulations!"

It is the spirit of the papacy—the spirit of conformity to worldly customs, the veneration for human traditions above the commandments of God—that is permeating the Protestant churches and leading them on to do the same work of Sunday exaltation which the papacy has done before them” (Great Controversy, p. 573).
