Join us for an action oriented Climate Justice conversation and lunch. This opportunity is the follow up to our well attended and beautiful Climate Justice Revival. You do not need to have attended the revival to attend this lunch but we hope revival attendees will be able to join us. After you register we will send specific information to help you prepare for this gathering. In our next step towards impactful action the Climate Justice Revival organizing team distilled our work at the Climate Justice Revival into a manageable number of issues for consideration. Our next goal is to agree on one or two of the areas where there is the most energy and engagement so that we can work together to achieve real climate justice progress.
If you didn't have a chance to participate in the Sacred Circle process at the Climate Justice Revival, and would like to, please reach out to us ([email protected]) and we'll share another opportunity for you to participate before November 23rd. If not, please review the list below of the eight topics that were mentioned by multiple participants. To add context, after each topic are specific needs as written by individual participants.
If you cannot attend the session on November 23, we invite you to indicate your interest and willingness to work on up to three topics and why or what specifically you would like to do related to each topic. Please respond via the following form: https://tinyurl.com/UUCMclimateJusticeSurvey
