So after the industrial revolution work animals & riding horses were replaced by machines with comparable power(1hp = 745.7watts).

For the most part you exploit* natural resources when you operate machinery or equipment. Or you generate energy in the form of heat, light, or explosives.

This isn't just about global warming; this is about keeping the first principle for self preservation that God gave us(Gen2:1-3). But global warming is definitely the result of not keeping it.


*exploit-to utilize, consume, or harm resources

Lastly the idea of giving creation one day of rest was for when the earth was healthy and man was in balance with his environment. But the earth is not healthy now and we're out of balance with our environment. So when possible we need to rest from exploiting creation more than one day out of seven to help bring things back into balance.                         An Afterthought: Yes cleaner energy sources and limited use of resources are both good ways to reduce global warming. But they treat the symptoms. The root of the problem is a mindset that doesn't see the Earth as being alive and possessing both self-preservation and free will; which makes it worthy of Sabbath Day rest along with mankind and the animals. Trying to prove the Earth is alive using science and philosophy is not gonna work. This wisdom only comes from having a sense of fear and respect for the Word of God.

In Exodus 23:10-12 and Leviticus 25:1-5 God instructs man to let the land rest from being farmed every 7th year. Furthermore man is instructed to let the animals rest as well as anyone in the household on the 7th day. So this covered a day of rest for man as well as a day of rest for creation from man's exploitation* of its resources (namely the land and animals). *exploitation-to utilize, consume, or harm resources
