"Black populations often are disproportionately affected by air pollution from wood pellet plants." - Reverend Leo Woodberry of New Alpha Community Development Corporation

Please join us on May 19th at 12pm ET or 7pm ET for our May Eco-Theology Call on #NoNewFossilFuels featuring special guest, Bill McKibben. Soon, the GreenFaith community will be unleashing multi-faith power to reject a raft of proposed fossil fuel projects. From Enbridge’s Line 3 in Minnesota to the East Africa Pipeline in Uganda and Tanzania, our grassroots, multi-faith community is gearing up to put faith into action. Join this call to learn from high-level and grassroots leaders of faith around the world who are organizing so that there are no new fossil fuels.

Not only is fossil fuel pollution the primary cause of climate change; it’s also responsible for 1 in 5 deaths worldwide. These are precious lives and preventable deaths sacred breath snuffed out for the sake of profits. That’s why one of our Ten Demands is no new fossil fuel infrastructure. Please join our May 19 call at 12 pm or 7 pm ET for moral inspiration and to learn about our why. Author and longtime friend Bill McKibben will join us as religious activists from the U....S. and Africa call us to act. You’ll connect with allies in small groups and we’ll commit to action, together.

GreenFaith strongly supports faith + science as needed to address the climate crisis. But we MUST be clear about the implications of this. For example, the science is clear: absolutely no new fossil fuels and deforestation, or we face ruin.
