Can the left reach out to religious conservatives on the environment?

The Economist at least implies there's a possibility of this happening. This, from an article this week entitled "Heating up at last?
":

There is also now a celestial voice in energy policy. Conservative religious groups are increasingly concerned about the issue. Christianity Today, the magazine of Billy Graham's evangelical movement, has just run an editorial arguing the moral case for action on climate change. As Mr Lieberman says with a smile, “The earth is, after all, a faith-based initiative.”
For the Democrats to consistently win in the future, they will at least need to find some common ground with conservative Christians. If the environment is an issue on which the two groups agree, I say work together to ensure change and leave battles over public morality for another day.
