Global warming is a hot topic that
shows little sign of cooling down. Working to cool our planet are churches,
congregations, temples, synagogues, and other faith based organizations
which offer not only a dedicated and diverse grass roots membership but
possess a moral imperative to protect the Earth we all cherish and depend
upon for our existence. Many organized faiths recognize the peril of our
planet and have organized their members to individually and collectively
address the root causes of global warming.
In recognition of this growing involvement, Maine Interfaith Power and Light
invites all faiths to partner as a ClimateCare partner to build a state and
nationwide coalition to address and remedy the root causes of global climate
change.
Become a ClimateCare Partner today and let Maine Interfaith Power and Light
help your community make the link between faith and the active care of our
planet.
