Maine Interfaith Power & Light's programs encourage energy conservation, energy efficiency and the use of alternative energy in our places of worship and in our homes. They also include educational materials on justice issues related to climate change, the need for reforestation, de-motorization, and the huge effect of our dietary habits and food production systems on global warming.
The Climate Care project provides resources and support to faith communities in developing environmental stewardship programs aimed at both raising awareness about climate change and taking action to counter it.
Climate Care members have been involved in public policy advocacy through their attendance at conferences and rallies and their support for defending the Clean Air Act, the Clean Energy Maine ballot initiative, and efforts to call attention to the negative consequences of mining tar sands oil.
