Caring for the Earth, Caring for Each Other: Bridging Faith and Climate Action Wednesday September 11 2024 at 7:00 PM
In a world where extreme natural disasters are becoming all too common, it can feel overwhelming to know how to tackle the root of the problem: climate change. What can we do? Why should we care?
Washington National Cathedral and the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine are convening experts in theology, climate science, energy justice and public engagement to discuss how addressing climate change can create a more just and equitable society for all.
All are welcome to join us in-person or online for Caring for the Earth, Caring for Each Other: Bridging Faith and Climate Action, where we will explore connections between science, policy, and the theological concepts of Creation Care and Building Beloved Community, which encourage stewardship of Earth's resources, racial reconciliation, healing, and justice.
In-person tickets are pay-what-you-wish (see options in the dropdown)
