NEW CHOICES FOR STEWARDSHIP OF GOD’S EARTH

 

Who: You and other congregational leaders (clergy and lay leaders) for whom environmental stewardship is important.

 

What: Evening meeting with representatives of companies who can bring you Clean Power Now!  Please plan to join us as representatives from companies selling green power in Connecticut bring us up to date on their newest offerings (including the exciting Adopt-a-Windmill Program !) and inform us as to how we and our communities can participate.

 

The discussion will include ways to pay for these clean, green power choices.

Call with any questions : and do plan to come. THESE ARE EXCITING NEW OPTIONS FOR GREENING YOUR CONGREGATION’S ENERGY USE!!

 

Organized by: Interreligious Eco-Justice Network

Our mission : to help faith communities be faithful stewards of life on Earth

Our question : where does our electricity come from and what are the impacts of those sources?

Our goal : to help religious communities become more aware of and more efficient in their use of energy, and to promote “green” (clean, renewable) energy among them.
