Good Soil: The Education of an Accidental Farmhand
by Jeff Chu
Faith Communities Go Green, a collaboration between Green Umbrella and Equasion, believe that faith communities have a powerful voice to offer as the world confronts the climate crisis. Religious organizations and communities can become strong allies in the fight for climate action. All traditions emphasize the moral and ethical imperative to care for creation. Individual efforts are important, but collaboration within and among congregations can bring about much greater change.
MISSION:
Partnering with religious communities to create a more sustainable and equitable future for all by mobilizing their moral voice to reduce the risk of catastrophic climate change.
VISION:
Religious communities collaborating to integrate care for creation in their lives and society.
Faith Communities Go Green Working Groups

Adocacy Working Group
Provide timely information on emerging policy and legislation, information on how people can inform themselves at greater depth, and policy makers’ contact information, for faith communities to use as they will.
Education/Lifestyles Working Group
Inspire the diverse faith communities within the Greater Cincinnati area to reduce their carbon footprint by recognizing the moral and spiritual value of creation care and by making sustainable lifestyle choices. Learn More
Facilities Working Group
Work with houses of worship and religious institutions in our Greater Cincinnati area to reduce their environmental impact by lowering their carbon footprint through implementation of actions described in a Facilities Toolkit.
Start a Green Team!
Having a green team in a house of worship enables lay members to influence attitudes and daily behaviors to better care of our planet for future generations. Show people the connections between environmental issues and other issues they might care about, such as refugees or food insecurity. Use the strengths of the people on your team.
