Dear ,

The latest Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change clearly demonstrated that climate impacts are reaching catastrophic levels. As persons and communities of faith, it is critical that we take action against the environmental injustices that are happening both on a local and global scale. We invite you to join us this upcoming weekend to show our unity in this cause. Our faiths teach us that hope has the final word, but without action, hope is empty.

Using an international climate activist platform created by GreenFaith, the Interfaith Coalition for Earth Justice (ICEJ) will sponsor two projects in San Diego:

Fri. Oct. 15-Sun. Oct. 17--faith communities will call for climate justice using the riches of their own traditions and resources (here) provided by GreenFaith and ICEJ

Mon. Oct. 18  1:00 - 2:15 PM--faith communities and their supporters will come together for the Faiths 4 Climate Justice Rally on the west side of the County Administration Building, 1600 Pacific Highway, to present 5 key demands on climate and equity. We ask that these demands be prioritized in the County’s Regional Decarbonization Framework. Our Rally will also feature music, street theatre, reflections and prayers from a diversity of faith traditions. Co-sponsors: SanDiego350, California Poor People’s Campaign, Creation Care Ministry of the Catholic Diocese of San Diego, San Diego Green New Deal Alliance.

For more information on the demands, check out our post on Instagram or Facebook.

We will make our voices heard!  For more information, contact Phil Petrie at phil@icejsd.org.
