What if faith and science aren’t opposites, but powerful partners in healing our planet?
Join a gathering of faith leaders and climate-focused scientists as we explore how spiritual traditions and scientific inquiry both call us to care for the Earth and build a more hopeful future. Together, we’ll trace the shared moral, spiritual, and scientific threads that shape climate action and uncover the values that unite us across disciplines.
This conversation invites us to rethink an old assumption: you don’t have to choose between faith and science. You can stand firmly in both.
