Respect for the interdependent web of all existence of which we are a part
- Canadian Unitarian Counsel 7th Principle.

The Goals of Climate and Environmental Justice Committee;

 

To build awareness of our dependence on and obligation to respect nature and conform to its laws.

 

To help our Unitarian community and the wider one in which we live to recognize, respond to and adapt to existing existential threats, including global heating and biodiversity loss.

 

To motivate Unitarians to community action on environmental issues.

 

To build and reinforce our Unitarian recognition of the connection between spiritual practice and environmental awareness.

Green Action
  • Film nights featuring an environmental issue. Join us for a movie and a lively discussion afterwards

 

 

  • A community garden program at the church assigns raised beds to people wishing to raise their own vegetables

 

  • Participation in protest marches and letter-writing related to climate change issues

 

Climate change is undoubtedly the most serious threat to humanity, even though it is often pushed off our radar unconsciously and even deliberately for more flashy and exciting "urgencies". We can all try to reduce our impact, but how do we do that on an individual, congregational, community, municipal, provincial, federal or international level? We at Calgary Unitarians work together to develop plans that we can achieve individually or cooperatively and We invite all who share these values to join us on this journey of connection, sustainability, and hope.
