SUMMARY:The Face of God
DESCRIPTION:From the melting permafrost that threatens churches in Alaska to the wildfires that ravaged California this past year\, to the U.S. South where hurricanes are becoming stronger and more deadly\, communities around the globe are already feeling the rising impacts of global climate change. The Face of God is a film about God and nature\, faith and climate change\, and the experience of communities around the world facing and experiencing changes in their lives now. This is also a film about beauty\, ecology\, theology\, sanctity\, our relationship to the natural world\, love\, asceticism\, and always it is about the radiant living icon of the face of God in creation. The film showcases important Christian voices\, scientists\, politicians\, lay leaders\, theologians\, and communities around the world\, and gathers the witness of the whole church on the defining issue of our time.  Join us online each week on Thursday (except Mar. 17) to view segments of the film and discuss them. Can’t make it every week?  Join as you are able.  Register on www.eventbrite.com at: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/the-face-of-god-tickets-252042886057.

SUMMARY:Eight Crucial Years for Our Civilization
DESCRIPTION:Most people don’t realize quite how pivotal the next eight years are for the future of our climate\, our planet\, and our civilization. Join Phoebe Barnard\, lead author of the global climate action blueprint\, “World Scientists’ Warnings Into Action: Local to Global\,” with 15 top global scientists\, economists and governance specialists\, as she outlines the actions that humanity needs to take to avert our complex planetary crises by 2026\, 2030 and 2050 at six scales\, from the household and community levels to cities\, states\, nations and the UN.  What are the most important things which we can\, and must\, all do as individuals\, as communities\, in cities? These include concrete actions for energy conservation and decarbonization; for reduction of atmospheric pollutants; for nature conservation and restoration; for food systems reform\, dietary change and soil conservation; for smaller families and stabilizing and slowly reducing population; and for reform of our consumerist economy.  A summary of the paper is given in an article in The Conversation\, and the paper is open for cosignature by anyone with a degree in any kind of science at Scientists’ Warning Europe. Time for interactive discussion with the speaker will be provided.  Please register for this talk on www.eventbrite.com at https://www.eventbrite.com/e/eight-crucial-years-for-our-civilization-tickets-261427736397.
