SUMMARY:Living the Change
DESCRIPTION:Scientists tell us that we must reduce our greenhouse gas emissions by 50% by 2030 (vs. a 2010 baseline)\, and that 25 – 30% of all needed emissions reductions can come from individuals/households. 50% may seem like a very high hurdle. 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. \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 t \nRegister for this course on www.eventbrite.com at: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/1988791778747. \nFor more information\, please contact Lisa Brenskelle at gcs.lrc@gmail.com.

SUMMARY:Living the Change
DESCRIPTION:Scientists tell us that we must reduce our greenhouse gas emissions by 50% by 2030 (vs. a 2010 baseline)\, and that 25 – 30% of all needed emissions reductions can come from individuals/households. 50% may seem like a very high hurdle. 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. \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 t \nRegister for this course on www.eventbrite.com at: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/1988791778747. \nFor more information\, please contact Lisa Brenskelle at gcs.lrc@gmail.com.

SUMMARY:Stop Stealing Our Futures
DESCRIPTION:These are trying times. DHS agencies and the military are invading our communities. Our military is waging war or threatening war on multiple fronts. Meanwhile\, in order to maintain such an active presence on the world stage\, the military needs more recruits. Recruiters are appearing at our schools\, community meetings\, social media\, on our phones\, everywhere it seems. We are planning a SECOND webinar Saturday\, June 13th\, 2026 building on our first and we invite you to participate. No prior attendance necessary. Take a deeper look at proven strategies. Each section is presented by people that have been deeply involved in this work for a significant period.\nYour attendance is vital. Big or small\, everything we do helps prevent a young person from making a decision they may regret (and often do).\n\nRSVP at https://tinyurl.com/demilitarizeJun13
