Climate Memo Mondays #48

JUSTICE SPOTLIGHT: October 26, 2021

Our Unitarian Universalist Association tells us what the larger UU Fellowship believes about saving the Earth and its living things from the ravages of climate change. It says:

“Earth is our home. We are part of this world and its destiny is our own. Life on this planet will be gravely affected unless we embrace new practices, ethics, and values to guide our lives on a warming planet. As Unitarian Universalists, how can our faith inform our actions to remedy and mitigate...” and please read the rest of this powerful message by clicking this link: https://www.uua.org/action/statements/threat-global-warmingclimate-change  . . . .

We hope you are all making calls to your leaders about boosting the progressive measures in the Build Back Better Bill. If you don’t know what’s in it, please look into it; the very environmental policies we need to save the climate are today at risk in the bill, we hear. If you want an easy way to locate and call your leaders, go to the Apple Store and download to your phone the free "5 Calls Application" and sign in with your name and address so it’ll know which leaders you have, and it will place the calls for you to their numbers, one by one. Just speak a brief, courteous message, your name, and address. You can ask for a reply if you give your address. Easy-peasy!

Meanwhile, we hope you will read more about the UU Association’s commitment to carbon reduction and think about what we can do as a congregation and in our daily lives as individuals. Send us your thoughts, OK? Ask your kids, too!
