But\, it translates to only a 10%/year reduction\, starting now. And\, you may have already made some lifestyle improvements since 2010 that reduced your emissions\, so you could already be well on your way toward the 50% reduction goal.  \n\n\n\nParticipants in this individualized course will leave with a personal plan to achieve the 50% emissions reduction goal through targeted lifestyle improvements that will also save them money. The course was developed in response to the Walk on Earth Gently multifaith statement\, inspired by religious teachings to turn away from consumerism & to seek balanced relationships with all people and the planet. Walk on Earth Gently invites you into a journey of Living the Change that the world needs. This program will work individually with participants\, on dates and times that work for both them and the facilitator.  Those already far along on their carbon footprint reduction journey may only need a few sessions with the facilitator to complete their 50% carbon footprint reduction plan\, whereas others may need more sessions.  Accept the Walk on Earth Gently invitation and commit to a sustainable lifestyle.   \n\n\n\nRegister for this course on www.eventbrite.com at: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/1975018418255. \n\n\n\nFor more information\, please contact Lisa Brenskelle at gcs.lrc@gmail.com.

As it turns out\, they can also lead by example at renewing and saving our water resources. \n\n\n\nAcross traditions and denominations\, faith communities can embrace One Water thinking—the idea that all water has value and should be managed holistically\, whether it falls from the sky\, flows from a faucet\, or enters a drain. \n\n\n\nXeriscaping replaces thirsty turf with native plants that thrive on faith\, sunshine\, and minimal irrigation. Rainwater harvesting systems capture rooftop blessings and store them for landscape use or even indoor nonpotable and potable use. Even air conditioners can join the congregation! AC condensate harvesting collects the steady drip of distilled water that would otherwise disappear into the storm drain. Inside\, conservation measures such as efficient fixtures and leak detection quietly trim consumption without disrupting services (of any kind). Graywater reuse systems redirect gently used water from sinks to irrigate grounds or reuse indoors for non-potable purposes. Atmospheric water generation can even pull moisture directly from the air: loaves and fishes\, but for humidity. \n\n\n\nFor ecclesiastical campuses ready to go further\, on-site blackwater treatment and reuse systems close the loop\, safely recycling wastewater for nonpotable uses. The result is resilience\, lower operating costs\, and an example of environmental care in action. In the end\, saving water is less about sacrifice and more about intention. Houses of worship can model a quiet truth: conservation is not only practical—it’s faithful.  An opportunity for Q&A with the speaker will follow. \n\n\n\nRegister for this event on www.eventbrite.com at: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/1984398383985.
