Invest in renewables, foster resilience, and work toward energy justice

|

Suggested Practices and Examples for Implementation:

  • Install solar panels (if solar makes sense for your building/property location).
  • Solar doesn’t work for your building? Look into a geothermal heating and cooling pump. 
  • Volunteer in your community to help others weatherize, access renewable energy, and receive the support they need. Make it a regular part of your creation care ministry. 
  • Install electric car charging stations in your parking lot. 
  • Organize your congregation to encourage your city/town to go solar, install electric car charging stations, etc. 
  • Learn about energy democracy and how your congregation can advocate for energy justice in your community.  Do that advocacy and organizing work.
