On February 27, 2022 at 4:00pm ET, student activists from six local universities (Cincinnati State, Miami University, Mount Saint Joseph, Northern Kentucky University, University of Cincinnati and Xavier University) will discuss current campus efforts to address climate change. Join us online via Zoom to hear these bright university students discuss their current ideas and initiatives for how we can all collectively work towards building a better future for both the environment and humankind. This program is brought to you by Faith Communities Go Green in collaboration with Green Umbrella and EquaSion. To register, please visit https://greenumbrella.org/
Gathering at two times on February 24, 2022, people of faith around the world will gather to learn more about how the financial industries have financed the climate’s destructions by investing in the fossil fuel industry, get energized to organize as people of faith to hold asset managers and banks accountable, and commit to bold next steps in their regions.
The campaign will advance the progressive climate movement by amplifying the voices of frontline and Global South faith communities and Indigenous communities, and by aligning religious voices and power with the climate movement’s agenda.
We will showcase moral standards which would then become a public document calling on people of faith around the world to organize around climate finance. These standards will position these leaders to push their institution’s investors.
This will also be a gathering and training of grassroots leaders as they begin to organize in their communities. Part of the summit will be led by frontline community leaders and include training to bridge the gap between frontline leaders and investment leaders, particularly moving into action.
The campaign will be grounded in high-quality theological and spiritual teachings and rituals.
Join the official Launch Call on 24 February at either 9am ET or 7pm ET.

Join the New Canaan Land Trust and Interfaith Council of New Canaan in an interfaith exploration of conservation and environmentalism. Centered around the three Abrahamic faiths, this program will explore the different ways that religion tasks us with protecting and stewarding the earth. We welcome community members of all faiths to join us either in-person or virtually.
The program will begin with a lecture from Drs. Mary Evelyn Tucker and John Grim, professors at Yale University, and Co-Directors of the Yale Forum on Religion and Ecology. Their presentation will link conservation and environmentalism to the teachings of many of the world’s religions. Drs. Tucker and Grim will also help us to understand how different faiths interpret and ask us to respond to the environmental issues that we face today.
Following the lecture, we will host a panel discussion with faith leaders from in and around New Canaan. The panel will be moderated by Reverend Stephanie Johnson, a former student of Drs. Tucker and Grim, who has spent many years working at the intersection of theology and environmentalism and facilitates faith-based environmental programs.
