SUMMARY:Justice Interconnections: Climate\, Race\, Economy\, Health\, Migration & More
DESCRIPTION:The climate crisis is very real.  And we tend to oversimplify it.  In dealing with the climate crisis in a just manner\, it is imperative that we consider the many aspects of climate justice – racial justice\, economic justice\, health care justice\, climate migration justice\, and so much more.  Join retired United Methodist pastor\, the Rev. Mel Caraway\, as he leads us in an exploration of how all these divergent factors interconnect and make solving the climate crisis more complex. Time for interactive Q&A with the speaker will be provided. Please register for this talk on www.eventbrite.com at https://www.eventbrite.com/e/justice-interconnections-climate-race-economy-health-migration-more-tickets-601770520827. Contact Lisa Brenskelle at gcs.lrc@gmail.com with any questions.

SUMMARY:The Path of Hope: A Study on Climate Action for Faith Communities
DESCRIPTION:You are invited to join an online discussion series built around 15-minute videos featuring interviews with US faith leaders\, representatives of climate-impacted communities from the global South\, and presentations by UN officials and other experts. The videos walk viewers through four key climate policy issues that intersect with universal faith concerns for vulnerable and marginalized people. The series focuses on how climate change is impacting the core ministries of faith communities around the world\, how those impacts will increase in the future\, and why these impacts create an imperative for people of faith to advocate for strong US climate action.  A discussion guide is included that asks participants to think deeply about how their own local faith community’s direct service programs intersect with climate impacts\, and how knowledge and experiences gained through these programs might help to inform climate policy. The study’s Action Center provides practical\, step-by-step instructions for advocacy activities\, as well as recommended policy asks for local\, state\, and national leaders.  Join us! Please register on www.eventbrite.com at https://www.eventbrite.com/e/the-path-of-hope-a-study-on-climate-action-for-faith-communities-tickets-570682395407.
