Secular sharia, green halakah

Sharia and Halakah are the Islamic and Jewish codes, respectively, of religious law. Both are voluminous and both are incredibly detailed, leaving, as far as I know, no area of human life or activity untouched.

The modern secular religion of Gaia-worship, ecology, also known as environmentalism, also has its developing code of sacred law. Just check out the San Francisco coven's detailed lists of which materials go into which color-coded garbage can.

Isn't it great how modern science has trumped obscurantist religious superstition with its host of incomprehensible and obsessive regulations?
